Peter Sagan wins sixth Slovakian national title
Bora-Hansgrohe rider wins title for first time since 2015



Peter Sagan won his sixth title in the men's road race at the Slovakian Championships on Sunday. The Bora-Hansgrohe rider soloed to victory ahead of his brother and two-time defending champion Juraj Sagan. Michael Kolár finished third at six minutes back, making it a podium sweep for Bora-Hansgrohe.
Sagan won five road titles from 2011-2015, and his latest victory bumped him to the top of the record board, ahead of his Bora-Hansgrohe director Jan Valach, who won the nationals five times. "I am happy to win my sixth Slovak championships, it’s always a proud moment for any athlete," Sagan said in a team press release.
