Elia Viviani takes sprint win on stage 1 of the CRO Race as last year's winner Mohoric loses time after late crash

Elia Viviani of the INEOS Grenadiers has taken victory on stage 1 of the 2023 CRO Race after a frantic bunch sprint to the line.
After five riders managed to make it into the breakaway of the day, the peloton had successfully reeled them all in the time the race reached 20km to go and from there, a bunch sprint finale was inevitable.
After last year's overall winner Matej Mohoric was caught in a late crash, the Slovenian faced a frantic battle to chase back on with 6km to go. In the finale, Elia Viviani was the first to open his sprint and on the throw took a narrow victory ahead of Tobias Lund Andresen and Alexander Kristoff.

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
