On the 7th of October we have another reputable Italian classic, part of the late-season block. It is time for the Coppa Bernocchi, a race that is more guided towards the sprinters than most others; but nevertheless features terrain for a very open race. We preview the race ahead.
The riders take on a route that starts and finishes in Legnano. It's not fully flat, it features seven ascents of the 'Piccolo Stelvio', but the riders will be happy to know it has nothing to do with the famous Alpine climb. It is only a small 1.6-kilometer hilltop at 6%, the last of which ends with 31 kilometers to go. From there on it's almost smooth sailing into the finish where a sprint is expected.
Legnanon - Legnano, 174.7 kilometers

- 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
