Video: Dreaming of the rainbow jersey

Valverde finally has the rainbow jersey. He had come close on so many previous occasions, with six medals already, but he finally took the victory in Innsbruck this year. Among a few stars, our rider Gianni Moscon shone, doing an amazing job and finishing in fifth place, escorted carefully by the complete Italian team until the last brutal climb, Höttinger Höll. We are pretty sure that one day, quite soon, we will wear the world champion’s jersey, but in the meantime we want to say thank you to Camilla Alessio, Tatiana Guderzo, Gabriele Benedetti, Alessandro Fancellu, Marco Frigo, Andrea Piccolo, Samuele Rubino, Antonio Tiberi and all the Italian riders who gave us the opportunity to experience some very special moments that we will never forget. Thank you, ITALIA! Watch the video to relive these moments. Enjoy!

Gianni Moscon is certainly one of the Italian riders to keep an eye on Sunday. The race might me too hard for such a rider, and someone doubts about him due to the long stop after the Tour de France. Truth is every national team will be watching him closely because he showed good condition during the recent Italian races and because he is so strong that leaving him five meters could mean seeing him again at the finish line.
