Cycling: Tim Merlier completed his second stage win at this year's Giro d'Italia. The Belgian was able to prevail in the mass sprint in Padova ahead of Jonathan Milan.
Merlier defeats Milan
He did it: Tim Merlier (Soudal – Quick-Step) took his long-awaited second stage win at the 2024 Giro d'Italia. After the Belgian had already won the first sprint finish, he had to wait a long time and repeatedly admit defeat. However, after 178 kilometers from Fiera di Primiero to Padova, he had the better end today. He referred jonathan milan (Lidl – Trek) and Caden Groves (Alpecin – Deceuninck) in second and third place. As expected, the outliers had no chance today. First a quartet joined in Mikkel Honore (EF Education – EasyPost), Filippo Fiorelli (VF Group – Bardiani CSF – Faizane), Andrea Pietrobon (Polti – Kometa) and Mirco Maestri (Polti – Kometa) on the run. They also joined us later Edward Affini (Visma – Lease a Bike). But ten kilometers from the finish the undertaking was over.
