Modolo rues missed sprint victory in Nijmegen
Lampre-Merida's Sacha Modolo found himself in third place at the end of a bunch kick to the line during stage 2 at the Giro d'Italia. The Italian says he lost several positions in the final few hundred metres, which cost him dearly. He did, however, thanks his teammates for delivering him into a good position ahead of the final sprint.
"I have succeeded, thanks to my teammates, to find a good location to set the sprint, unfortunately by 600 metres forward, between me and the first two riders of the stage, I lost a few positions and I found myself a moment of delay in the sprint," Modolo said in a team press release. If I had found the wheel of Kittel or Demare immediately, the battle for victory would have been played better.
