Ang fifth phase of Itzulia 2022 It was marked in red on the teams agenda, because of its toughness, because it was the penultimate and because it was the first for the final day this Saturday. A day of 163.8 kilometers, of continuous ups and downs, with five scoring ports on the route, some unidentified and ending in an 800-meter wall that could do a lot of damage.
It was a day where there was a lot of dropout from the start –Sergio Higuita, Jan Maas, Pierre Latour, Théo Delcroix, Mark Donovan, Florian Stork, Julen Amezqueta, Sebastian Berwick and Simon Pellaud-, and where the attacks have already taken place from the beginning, which only increases the nerve in the peloton.
And because of the speed and nervousness it has fallen several times. The worst unemployed, up to the time of writing these lines, was the Belgian Intermarché Kobe Goossens -leaving his team without runners- and the Australian Luke Hamilton. The corridor of BikeExchange Undoubtedly he was the star of terror today, with 67.8 kilometers left he traced a curve that was too wide and collided with the guardrail, which fell into the ravine.
Fortunately, he did not fall into disrepair and remained at the top of the embankment, although shortly after his own team reported that the runner had been forced to leave the race.
The previous departure of the Ararat corridor was 28 days ago, in the eighth phase of Paris-Beautiful.
