Alec Segaert (Lotto Soudal) has flushed his 19th place at the World Cup in Australia with a great victory in the Piccolo Lombardia, or the Tour of Lombardy for promises. Our compatriot beat world champion with the promises Fedorov in the sprint, the Frenchman Labrosse was allowed on the podium.

In order to let Fedorov ride in his rainbow jersey, his team Astana decided to put him at the start of the Tour of Lombardy in the U23. In a cycling race with the pros, with which Fedorov also has some experience, that honor is of course reserved for Remco Evenepoel.
The Kazakh was looking forward to another victory and went into the last 25 kilometers together with teammate Lopez, Alec Segaert, the Frenchman Labrosse and the Ethiopian Berhe. Because the five did not immediately set the pace, a few riders could sneak closer in the background. It did not come to a merger, because Fedorov accelerated. Segaert and Labrosse followed his wheel.
Labrosse then ran off alone, but Segaert brought out his inner time trialist in himself and brought the Frenchman back. Fedorov did not want to give way so that the three tenors were together again. In the end Berhe would actually compete for the overall victory, but Alec Segaert showed himself the fastest and the strength in Lombardy. World champions Fedorov and Labrosse completed the podium in Italy.
