"A really good team performance" - Florian Lipowitz & Aleksandr Vlasov give BORA - hansgrohe two spots on final Tour de Romandie podium
CyclingSunday, 28 April 2024 at 20:30
In a chaotic and frantic final stage of the 2024 Tour de Romandie, the BORA - hansgrohe duo of Florian Lipowitz and Aleksandr Vlasov were bright and attacking but ultimately couldn't unseat Carlos Rodriguez from the top of the general classification.
"I think it was a good week for the team with 2nd and 3rd place in the general classification," Vlasov reflects post-stage in conversation with the official website of the BORA - hansgrohe team. "It was also a really good team performance yesterday in the queen's stage. For me it was a nice race and I'm happy with my form. Lipo showed that he's super strong and I wish him good luck for his first Giro."
Whilst Vlasov's general classification challenge, the performance of Lipowitz was a real breakthrough. As Vlasov mentioned, it's the perfect time for such a showing too with the 23-year-old German set for his Grand Tour debut at the upcoming Giro d'Italia.
"I'm really happy with the result. Before the race, I never thought I would be able to ride up front here," Lipowitz reflects. "I came here with mixed feelings because I haven't had that many race days yet and I came straight from an altitude training camp. I wasn't sure what my form would be. To be able to ride up front gives me a lot of confidence."

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
