Controversial Lithuanian Raimondas Rumsas continues his winning ways in the Italian granfondo circuit. In the Prestigio-opener, GF Selle Italia, in Cervia last Sunday he beat Parkpre-teammate Timothy David Jones in the sprint after 152 km.
Apparently Rumsas is still allowed to participate in these races despite rumours he would no longer be. The GF Selle Italia saw close to 5000 participants this year, i.e. a new record. Its place in the Prestigio therefore seems guaranteed for the next few years.
Emmanuele Negrini finished 20th, Andrea Ciavatti 18th and Christian Ceralli 22nd. Names who wil appear more to the top of the sheets come June and July.
The women's race was won by Barbara Lancioni, outsprinting Gallucci and Bandini.
Interesting is also the striking number of Russian-names in the results...
The next Prestigio event is the Dieci Colli Bolognesi in Bologna on 1 May.
