Fernando Gaviria is one of the best Colombian cyclists in history as evidenced by the extraordinary record he has accumulated to date that includes 5 stages in the
Giro d'Italia and 2 in the Tour de France. Precisely in this year's Corsa Rosa he can break a record of
Nairo Quintana.
The
Movistar Team sprinter's main objective in this Giro 2023 is to try to win a stage and, incidentally, the classification of the Maglia Ciclamino. If he achieves it, if he wins a stage victory, Gaviria would go down in the history of Colombian cycling.
The reason would be that the sprinter equaled Nairo Quintana with 51 wins in the Tour de Romandie as the Colombian rider with the most victories in the history of the South American country. Thus, if he lifts his arms in the Giro, he will win 52 and surpass Nairo Quintana.
