Nice surprises in Albstadt, with all the big names fighting each other. In the male field, the return of Samuel Gaze is beautiful, we remember capable of beating Nino Schurter at the inaugural rehearsal of Stellenbosch in 2018.
SEE THE REPLAY
After some difficult seasons, he sent some important signals last year and now he is in great shape for the world cup round. Recall that Sam Gaze is teammate of Mathieu Van Der Poel, capable of today win the pink jersey at the Giro d'Italia.
Very fast race with Sam Gaze who proved to be clearly the strongest, doing nothing wrong in the final stages, chasing Luca Schwarzbauer and then jumping him in the final corners. Behind him a good battle between Schurter and Sarrou, with the latter overtaking the world champion by a few centimeters.
