Joshua Tarling Wins Stage 2 of the Giro d'Italia
Joshua Tarling (INEOS – Grenadiers) secured victory in the second stage of the FantaGiro d'Italia, the Tirana (Tiranë) – Tirana (Tiranë) Tudor Individual Time Trial (ITT) covering a distance of 13.7 kilometers. The young Brit took the biggest win of his career by finishing the short yet challenging time trial course one second ahead 2023 champion Primoz Roglic, who has taken the lead in the overall competition from Mads Petersen. Jay Vine finished third on the day, three seconds in arrears.
“To win today is definitely exceptional. I was satisfied with my ride but the last part was harder than when we did it in the recon. Waiting for the other riders to complete the course was hard too, I don’t want to do it again. It was long. I was afraid of everyone among the favourites. Primoz [Roglic] was very impressive. I went all in yesterday so I have no regrets [with regards to the Maglia Rosa]. This first win in a Grand Tour is a new step in my career”.
