Giro d'Italia stage 2
Mostly falt stage but the hills at the end should make it hard.
pretty straight foward, breaks went, breaks caught, gonna be a hectic sprint finish as none of the top sprinters made it over the climbs.
so over the top of the last hill with 3 k to go lovkvist attakcs!
Under the flag Tommy and Kolobenov are fighting for the win and the pack led by Wegman is closing fast.
Lovkvist!!!!!
And with some time gaps he moves into pink!
