Filippo Fiorelli (Bardiani - CSF - Faizane) won the first stage of the Sibiu Tour in Romania. It's the first victory of the season for the Sicilian athlete.
The second stage from Brezoi to Sibiu with over 200km of racing ended with a sprint which was won by Filippo Fiorelli. His victory pushed him to the overall leader position in the GC and he will begin the next stage with the yellow jersey.
“A truly sought-after victory this year and today.I unlocked because I was already in good condition from the Giro di Sicilia, I went out for a bad day at the Giro d'Italia, but I immediately got back into racing at the Tour of Norway and then in Slovenia and the Italian. I have to thank my teammates who have all done a splendid job, some from afar like Battaglin, some on the climb like Martinelli, and some on the final train like Marcellusi and Colnaghi. And my DS who have always supported me and believed in me, as well as my mom. With the victory also came the leader's jersey, but the general classification is not our primary goal,” said stage winner Fiorelli.
