COMUNICATO STAMPA

Matteo Scalco shines again at the Giro della Valle d’Aosta: fifth in the queen stage and in the overall standings. An outstanding performance by Matteo Scalco in the fourth stage of the Giro della Valle d’Aosta, a 160 km route from Saint-Pierre to Valsavarenche.
The rider from Vicenza, racing for VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè, secured a brilliant fifth place on the day, a result that also moves him up to fifth in the general classification.
Scalco was one of the most active riders of the day, managing to join the leading group that contested the final victory.
With 5 km to go, he launched a bold attack to surprise the others, but his effort was neutralized in the closing kilometers. Once again, it was Belgian Jarno Widar who took the decisive winning move.
