Last Update: Saturday, February 5, 2022 : 09:10 (+4GMT)
February 05, 2022: Sebastian Molano put in a fast turn of speed to take 2nd place on Stage 2 of the Vuelta Valenciana behind Fabio Jakobsen (Quick Step – Alpha Vinyl) on the hilly sprint finish from Betera to Torrent (171.5km).
The Colombian fastman was without the leadout of Ryan Gibbons who was involved in a hard crash with 3.7km to go, however thankfully the South African was able to finish the stage afterwards.
Molano: “It was a good sprint and I’m really happy and thankful for the work the guys did to put me in a good position. Unfortunately we lost Gibbons to a crash in the final kilometres so we missed a man, but we did what we could. Jakobsen was just that bit faster than everyone else today but the legs are very good and I hope to find a win very soon.”
After a solid display yesterday, Juan Ayuso climbed the General Standings to 10th place overall at 1’14’’ from race leader Remco Evenepoel (Quick Step – Alpha Vinyl).
Tomorrow the racing at Vuelta Valenciana continues with Stage 3 from Alicante to Antenas del Maigmó (155.1km) in what is set to be a key day for the GC.
