Kittel sprints to victory in Giro’s stage 2

NIJMEGEN, Netherlands (AFP) — Marcel Kittel dominated a bunch sprint Saturday to win his first grand tour stage since 2014. At the end of the Giro d’Italia’s second stage, the Etixx – Quick-Step rider pulled ahead of a strong field of sprint specialists in the final 150 meters to solo over the finish line in triumph.

Arnaud Demare (FDJ) finished second in the 190-kilometer stage form Arnhem to Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Sacha Modolo (Lampre – Merida) nabbed third on the day.

Tom Dumoulin (Giant – Alpecin) rolled across the line safely in the peloton to retain his general classification lead.

Omar Fraile (Dimension Data), Giacomo Berlato (Nippo Vini Fantini), and Maarten Tjallingii (LottoNL – Jumbo) formed a three-man early breakaway that built a lead of over eight minutes with 100 kilometers remaining.

But the flat finish meant their victory ambitions were at the mercy of the sprinters’ teams, and when they upped the pace significantly in the final 50 kilometers, the escape was doomed.

Berlato tried to resist to chase, soloing away from his companions as the peloton closed in. But he was reeled in with 10 kilometers remaining, leaving it all up to the fast finishers.

In a high-octane finish several teams put their sprint trains at the front to try and set up their fast men for the final dash.

None could match the sheer power of Kittel, who pulled ahead of his rivals with 100 meters go, opening up an unassailable gap that allowed the German to raise his arms in celebration well before the line.

“Yesterday, the time trial was a good sign of my form,” said Kittel.

“After a difficult year, I’m back to winning in a grand tour. It’s also something that means a lot to me. I’m very happy that the team, which is not a team that you would immediately describe as the strongest lead out team in the world, showed great confidence and also great strength to make the sprint possible for me.”

Primoz Roglic (LottoNL – Jumbo) may be the closest rider to Dumoulin in the GC for now, with both riders sitting on the same time, but the bonus seconds Kittel earned at the stage 2 finish put him within one second of the lead — with another potential sprinters’ day on tap.

Despite the looming threat of losing the pink jersey, Dutchman Dumoulin was upbeat about racing at home. “The whole race was a party! There were crowds everywhere,” he said.

“I enjoyed the moment because my team helped me keep the pink jersey in a really good way. Now Marcel Kittel is close in GC but the party continues.”

The Giro continues Sunday with 190-kilometer stage 3 that will take the peloton from Nijmegen back to Arnhem.
