Cycling: Again, the escapees prevailed at the Giro d'Italia - and the king among them won: Thomas De Gendt.
De Gendt also wins thanks to Vanhoucke
A day for the runaways! As expected, the eighth stage starting and finishing in Naples over 153 kilometers was suitable for a strong breakaway group - and today's breakaway group definitely has to be described as strong. No fewer than 21 men were able to break away from the main field and fight for the win of the day. But on the wavy course, the group was gradually torn apart. The sprinters Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin – Fenix) and Biniam Girmay (Intermarché – Wanty – Gobert Matériaux) watched each other and promptly found themselves only in the chasing group. And although tactics were made at the very front, the connection could no longer be made. The Belgian opened the sprint for the day's win Harm Vanhoucke (Lotto – Soudal). Teammate and compatriot thomas degendt (Lotto – Soudal) passed – and no one could catch his rear wheel. This is how the 35-year-old wins his next stage in a Grand Tour. Little should change in the overall rating. However, the French made a big step forward William Martin (Cofidis). The favorites all crossed the finish line together. The Spaniard remains the wearer of the pink jersey Juan Pedro Lopez placeholder image (Trek-Segafredo.
Thomas de Gendt biraz önce Giro'da 8. etabı Napoli'de muhteşem bir şekilde kazandı. Sıra dışı bir kaçış sanatçısını şaheserlerinden birini icra ederken izlemek çok güzeldi. Shirt de 10 yıl sonra ilk kez Giro'da etap kazandı. Çok seviyoruz. pic.twitter.com/lri1o4P4Pz
