Danish Tobias Lund Andresen (Decathlon) flew today in the final sprint of the third stage of the Tyrreno-Adriatic. MexicanIsaac del Toro (UAE) continues to own the 'Maglia Azzurra'.
After a quiet day prepared for the sprinter, Andrés has dominated the finish line of Magliano de 'Mari, ahead of Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) and Jasper Philips (Alpecin) , the top favorites.
Milan itself is far from the podium of the stage because it has started its attack too early. In the end it has been seventh when it struggles to win in stages like this. It has been the Belgian Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Intermarche) and Philipsen himself who have completed the podium of the stage, along with the 23-year-old Andrés.
The third stage of the 221 km 'Race of the Two Seas' between Cortona (Tuscany) and Magliano de 'Marsi (Abruzos) has been a quiet day without difficulty, as announced. Milan, Magnier, Philipsen or Wout Van Aert planned to fight in the last few meters, although in the last 15 kilometers there was a small climb (about 3%).
The Madrileño Diego PabloSevilla (Polti VisitMalta) has escaped from the beginning alone on the roads of Tuscany and has had almost 6 minutes of advantage over the platoon over 150 kilometers ahead. The escape from Seville has lasted 95 kilometers, and 127 kilometers from the finish line has been captured by the large group.
The fourth stagewill have a 213 km between Tagliacozzo and Martinsicuro and will have a more difficult route for cyclists than has been seen so far: two classic ascensions of the Apennines, Ovindoli and Valico delle Capannelle.
