Stan van Tricht takes first pro victory at Coppa Bernocchi 2024 as Evenepoel, Roglic & Hirschi don't feature in finale
Cycling
Alpecin-Deceuninck's Stan van Tricht has taken first professional victory at Coppa Bernocchi 2024, boosting his hopes at extending his career as he searches for a contract for 2025.
Heading toward a frantic finale, just three riders remained from the day's original breakaway as the race entered the final 50km, those being Bart Lemmen, Stan van Tricht and Alessandro Pinarello. Sadly for them though, the racing was already lighting up behind with none other than Remco Evenepoel himself on the attack early. At 30km to go though, Lemmen had dropped his companions and still held around a minute on a chase group containing Pavel Sivakov, with Evenepoel's group now 2:00 back down the road.
As Lemmen neared a first ever pro victory, the Dutchman's legs looked as if they were starting to tie up and at 10km to go, his advantage had closed again to just 17 seconds. Inside the final kilometre, Lemmen was finally caught by the chasers and from there, it was a 7-man fight for the line. In the end, it was Stan van Tricht who powered to glory ahead of Alex Baudin and Roger Adria.

It was a entertaining race to watch, and unpredictable right until the end.
No US covergae by either FloBikes or HBO...disappointing with these Italian races.
I should also clarify I watch the replays as the live feeds are to early on the west coast of US. This site you mentioned doesn’t do replays like FloBikes or HBO Max

- Jonas shouldn't have been attacking the GC leader from his team ! Selfish !frieders313-03-2025
- Why do you keep attacking your GC leader from your team? Vuelta all deja vu ! You are pretty selfish Jonas ! Kuss can attest to that ! Now Matteo can as well.frieders313-03-2025
- Really Jonas! Maybe stay home with your kids next time the weather gets tough! And maybe not attack your GC leading teammate as you also did in Vuelta with Kuss !frieders313-03-2025
- He beat Jonas twice this year, which is strange. Jonas doesn't appear to be as dominant as he was early last year before the crash. But the climb today wasn't long and hard enough for Jonas.
KerisVroom13-03-2025 - I guess it all depends on who all peaks when during their build-up into the season, so I doubt if it's safe to say that Almeida is really better than Jonas.Ride197413-03-2025

- 2021 Tour, not 2022. Merlier and Philipsen both went. Merlier won stage 3 and was clearly the fastest sprinter. Then they immediately changed the lineup for stage 4 with Merlier working leadout for Philipsen. That led to the first win for Cav that year and jasper came in 3rd. Jasper didn't win a single stage that year. Very odd to me that the team neglected the clearly faster rider immediately after winning a stage. Merlier was pretty dominant all of last year from UAE Tour to Euro Championship. The only other bunch sprinter to have a similar level was Milan, and that's continued this year. I can't wait to see those two go head to head at the Tour. Two very different styles for the two current bestEvan12-03-2025
