The words of Filippo Ganna

Filippo Ganna spoke to the microphones of RaiSport HD about what happened in the fourth stage of the Giro d'Italia in which he è went close to victory being caught by the peloton a kilometer from the finish: "A great attack? Not so great, otherwise I would have won. And for that I am disappointed".

"The’attack was not planned, è it came soì but in the end the sprinters got the better of it. Who knowsà, maybe if I had started a little bit’ closer to the top of the hill I would have made it…“, said the INEOS rider to the microphones of Rai Sport HD.

“Consonni and Milan? The race è race, basically it would have been nice to have Lamon as well, to see what he would have done. The breakaway at the beginning of the stage? You have to ask the team“, he concluded referring to the teammates of the Olympic track quartet who led the sprinters’ team comeback.
