Ballerini wins and exults

For the second year in a row, Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl celebrated at the Coppa Bernocchi: it is in fact Davide Ballerini who succeeded Remco Evenepoel in the roll of honor.

“I am very happy, because I really needed this victory: it shows that I have found my condition again after not being at my best at the World Championships. It was not easy and I suffered, because the speed of the opponents was increasing all the time, but I tried to tackle the climbs in the first positions and managed to stay in front even after almost falling. My team did a fantastic job and worked hard for me, pulling hard in the final: in the sprint I took Trentin’s wheel and gave it my all. I am overjoyed with this success at home and the fact that I was able to repay the guys for their fantastic work,” Ballerini said.
