The German Lennard Kamna (Bora Hansgrohe) was the strongest of the day’s breakaway and won alone in the third stage of the tour of the alps disputed between Lana and Villabassa with a route of 154.6 kilometers, in which the Biscayan maintained the leadership Pello Bilbao (Bahrain Victorious).
Kamna (Wedel, 25 years old), a stage winner in the Tour de France, Dauphiné and Volta a Catalunya, achieved his fifth victory as a professional with an attack within the selected group 3 kilometers from the finish line that allowed him to calmly raise his arms.
The German led the Costa Rican from Ineos by 3 seconds Andrew Amador and in 4 to a group led by the Bilbao Jonathan Lastra (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA), who had an outstanding performance.
The men of the general, with Pello Bilbao securing the leader’s green jersey, they arrived at the finish line 57 seconds behind Kamna. The 32-year-old from Gernikarra will defend the green jersey in the fourth stage with 6 seconds over Frenchman Romain Bardet (DS) and 12 over the Hungarian Attila Valter (Groupama).
