According to a report by Wielerflits, the key preparation race for next weekend Il Lombardia is at serious risk of being flooded out of the UCI calendar. "The authorities have now issued a red alert for the Italian region of Lombardy, among others," Wielerflits reports. "According to the latest weather reports, 150 to 200 millimetres will fall tomorrow – in a period of twelve hours."
The race is supposed to consist of a total of 200 kilometres with numerous climbs to Montello (2 km at 5.2% and Ronchi-Casbeno (2.5 km at 5). There will be 8 laps of the circuit with the last climb to Ronchi one kilometre from the finish. The climb to Barasso is incorporated on this occasion, with 11% sections that could do a lot of damage. Time will tell if we get the expected spectacle.
