Race Recap
Ackermann wins stage 11
Pascal Ackermann (UAD) took the sprint today in Tortona on the longest stage of the Giro d'Italia. Jonathan Milan (TBV) was second and Mark Cavendish (AST) finished third.
“It’s a really, really special victory for me, especially after my broken coccyx last year, I’m finally back,” Ackermann said after the stage. “I felt super amazing the last few days but could never show off how strong I am. Today I got a teammate to bring me in a good position, and we showed we can do it and I’m super happy to win today for my first victory of the season.
“There was a bit of head-crosswind, so if you came from the back, you could move really fast, but I decided to do it from the front because of the last corner – you never know how slippery it is, and I didn’t want to crash again. I’m just happy Cav was really strong, and actually, he was the perfect lead-out man for me today.”
