Marc Hirschi wins GP Industria & Artigianato
Thomas Silva second and Diego Ulissi third in Larciano
Marc Hirschi (UAE Team Emirates) seized a solo victory in the GP Industria & Artigianato on Sunday amid rainy conditions, securing his third win in a month after his triumphs at the Bretagne Classic and San Sebastian Klasikoa.
Due to weather conditions, the race was shortened by 26 kilometres from the usual 196km circuit, removing one of the three closing laps, around Larciano.
Attacking on the final ascent of San Baronto, the Swiss rider held on to a slim lead to take the victory, four seconds ahead of chaser Thomas Silva (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA). Hirschi’s teammate Diego Ulissi hit out from the heavily reduced pack to take third place, crossing the line five seconds after Silva.
