Bemer Cyclassics in Hamburg: great coup by Pedersen. Viviani sees himself again: 3rd

Number of the Dane of Lidl-Trek who imposes himself in comeback, the Veronese on the podium

Mads Pedersen conquered the 26th edition of the Bemer Cyclassics in Hamburg, 205 km, the only one-day German classic of the World Tour. The 27-year-old Dane from Lidl-Trek imposed himself on the wire with a great comeback and just 24 hours from success in the time trial and in the final classification of the Tour of Denmark. In the sprint, Danny Van Poppel, Dutchman of Bora-Hansgrohe, finished second, and our Elia Viviani (Ineos-Grenadiers) finished third: a good placement for the 34-year-old from Verona, who confirms that he is in good condition after the World Cup on track in which he captured a bronze in the elimination. McNulty, Politt and Lampaert, who had tried the action on the last pass on the Waseberg, were caught within the last kilometer and indeed McNulty had been the last to give up, caught a few meters before Pedersen’s powerful comeback .
