After his recent victories on the Tour d’Emilie and over Milan-Turin, the Slovenian Primoz Roglic appears quite naturally as the big favorite of the 115th edition of the Tour of Lombardy this Sunday. It will probably also be necessary to reckon with Julian Alaphilippe, behind on Milan-Turin but who seems to have made “the Classic of dead leaves” the big goal of his end of the season, as well as Rmco Evenepoel and Joao Almeida, his teammates of the Deceuninck – Quick-Step team. It will also be necessary to watch the Slovenian Tadej Pogacar, but also Michael woods, Adam Yates and Bauke Mollema, winner in 2019, or the indestructible Vincenzo Nibali and Alejandro Valverde. In the French camp, apart from Alaphilippe, it is David Gaudu, the Groupama-FDJ rider who seems to have the best chances to shine, especially since he can count on the support of his teammate Thibaut Pinot. The tired Franc-Comtois has indeed decided to give up his personal ambitions to put himself at the service of his younger brother. “I’m approaching the race with a lot of envy, I’ll be there to help David who really has the ability to play the podium,” he told L’Equipe on Thursday. The entry list
The route of the Tour of Lombardy has undergone some changes compared to last year: the Mur de Sormano and its vertiginous descent, in which Remco Evenepoel suffered a frightening fall last year, has for example been withdrawn from the program. However, many difficulties remain on the menu this Saturday, October 9, 2021 since six climbs are listed over the 239 kilometers between Como (departure at 10:30 am) and Bergamo, with in particular the climbs of Roncola (9.4 km at 6.6%, slopes at 17%), Berbenno (6.8 km at 4.6%), Dossena (11 km at 6.2%), Zambla Alta (9.5 km at 3.5%) and Passo di Ganda (9.2 km at 7.3%) , whose summit is located 30 km from the finish, the last obstacle being the Colle Aperto (1.3 km at 7%) three kilometers from the finish.
