Elena Cecchini (Canyon-Sram) won the second stage at the Lotto Thüringen Ladies Tour on Tuesday. The Italian won the reduced group sprint ahead of stage 1 winner Coryn Rivera (Sunweb) and Lisa Brennauer (Wiggle High5).
"It was a really tough race today, especially in the last lap. All the more I'm happy that I was able to take the win," Cecchini said.
Rivera kept her overall race lead, now with a nine-second advantage over Cecchini and 11 seconds to Brennauer.
The second stage of the Lotto Thüringen Ladies Tour took place in Meiningen. The riders started the race in good weather conditions at the city centre of Meiningen and competed for 132.7km. Mia Radotic (BTC City Ljubljana) was the first to attack but she was reeled back in ahead of the first mountain sprint.
A 12-rider group cleared the field and gained nearly two minutes on the field but it came back together on the fourth and final lap of the circuit race. BTC City's Eugenia Bujak was the next to go, but she too was brought back ahead of the finale by a chasing Sunweb team, with their overall leader Rivera.
The field was all together with three kilometres to go and while Sunweb set up Rivera for another victory, it was Cecchini who won the group sprint.
