Roglic pink jersey, Cavendish- Corriere.it wins the last stage

Where to be a catwalk and it was up to the last of the 126 km scheduled in the twenty-first stage of this Tour of Italy, the final one. And as in the most beautiful fairy tales to triumph in a sprint state Mark Cavendish, the British player from Astana who just recently announced his retirement at the age of 38 at the end of this season. Departure and arrival in Rome, a test divided into two parts: the first on the coast of Ostia, the second along a circuit inside the capital with a final ring covered six times. Primoz Roglic, after yesterday’s feat on Monte Lussari, lit up the cobblestones with his pink jersey. In the final sprint maxi fall that saw the protagonist Pascal Ackermann and not only.

Mattarella rewards Roglic

For the first time in the history of the Giro d’Italia, the President of the Republic awarded the winner. In fact, Sergio Mattarella handed over the Endless Trophy, the cup awarded to the pink jersey winner of the race, to Primoz Roglic. I enjoyed every single moment of this Giro – the words of the Slovenian, on the podium with his son – it was a roller coaster to get to Rome. Something spectacular and incredible happened on Monte Lussari. Six months ago I started preparing this lens and I switched to Tirreno-Adriatico to be able to perfect it as best as possible. I want to especially thank the fans who followed us along the streets during the entire race.
