Euskaraz irakurri: Mohoric Kasper Asgreeni gailendu zaio sprintean, helmugako argazkian erabaki den lehian

The team’s Slovenian cyclist Bahrain – Victorious Matej Mohoric ha cattle this friday the 19th stage of the 2023 Tour de Franceafter completing the ninth escape who has reached the finish line in this 110th edition of the Tour and to be the fastest of the trio of runners who have played for the victory. Mohoric has won by just a few centimeters the Dane of the Soudal Quick-Step Kasper Asgreenwinner on Thursday, in a sprint that required a photo finish to determine who was the fastest. the danish of Jumbo-Visma Jonas Vingegaard continue as leader of the general classification after a day in which there have been no significant changes among the best of the same.

The resolution of the stage has been full of emotion. In the last few kilometres, Mohoric, Asgreen and Ben O’Connor (AG2R) fought to keep out of a large group coming from behind, with Jasper Philipsen and Jon Izagirre in it; once the leading three have ensured that the victory of this day was going to be played between them, the sprint of Mohoric, Asgreen and O’Connor has been brilliant, with each one playing their tricks. And, once the photo finish has ruled that the Bahrain rider has claimed victory, it has been emotional to see how the winner was moved, dedicating his effort and his victory, the third for his team, to his teammate Gino Mäder, who died in June, in the Tour of Switzerland.

As has happened practically throughout the Tour, this Friday there has also been a battle almost from the beginning. Around kilometer 60, the first truly significant movement of the day was recorded: nine cyclists, Tiesj Benoot (Jumbo-Visma), Matteo Trentin (UAE Team Emirates), Julian Alaphilippe (Soudal-Quick Step), Jack Haig (Bahrain-Victorious), Nils Politt (Bora-Hansgrohe), Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek), Georg Zimmermann (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty), Warren Barguil (Arkéa-Samsic) and Victor Campenaerts (Lotto dstny), They have been able to break the vigilance of the peloton, and have gained a few seconds of advantage, until they were soon around the minute.

Subsequently, that group has been reached by almost 30 men, many of them of very high level; Jon Izagirre (Cofidis) was among them, accompanied by Laporte, Pidcock, Van den Berg, Bettiol, Powless, Asgreen, Mohoric, Wright, Haller, Meeus, O’Connor, Naesen, Van der Poel, Philipsen, Clarke, Houle, Neilands, Strong, Durbridge, Groenewegen, Mezgec, Abrahamsen, Charmig, Tiller, Waerenskjold, Oss, and Turgis.

At that point, Victor Campenaerts (Lotto) and Simon Clarke (Israel) have started, and have stood out at the head of the race. But behind there were many high-level people working hard, and they have been caught by Matej Mohoric (Bahrain-Victorious), Kasper Asgreen (Soudal Quick-Step) and Ben O’Connor (AG2R), who immediately left Campenaerts behind; the Belgian had been left alone in the lead, shortly before. Mohoric, Asgreen and O’Connor rode at a good pace for a good stretch; When the race was already in its last 20 kilometers, they had a few seconds ahead, around half a minute, which gave them hope of seeking victory.
