In the men's elite many big names, and a lot of France, in the top positions: it means that they already wanted to try the race pace so as not to be caught unprepared on Sunday. Nice surprise, if you can say a surprise, for the young man Finn Iles, according to everyone, an authentic phenomenon that is now making its way among the big names.
Great performances by the Italians with Davide Palazzari 18th and Loris Revelli 29th: the top 10 is not far off and it would be a fantastic result for our standard bearers!
