VF GROUP BARDIANI-CSF FAIZANÈ: MANUELE TAROZZI WINS THE SIXTH STAGE OF THE TOUR DE LANGKAWI.

Breakaway and winning sprint by Tarozzi, second victory of the season for the rider from Faenza, ninth win for VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizané.

Manuele Tarozzi launched a long-distance attack, winning the sixth stage. The rider from Faenza broke away alongside his teammate Gabburo. The main group miscalculated the timing and failed to catch the fugitives, leaving Tarozzi and De Bod to battle for the stage win. This marks Tarozzi’s second victory of the season and the ninth win for VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè.

His words: “We initially aimed for the general classification, but I had a bad day at Cameron Highlands. We also lost Lorenzo Conforti due to a crash, but Mattia Pinazzi showcased himself in the sprints, and the rest of us focused on breakaways,” Tarozzi said, dedicating the win to his wife Silvia. “Two days ago, we hesitated too much among the attackers, but today we had to make it, even if I finished second, I wanted to fight for it after taking so much wind. I thank Davide (Gabburo) for his great help and our director Alessandro Donati, who coaches me and pushed me to try again today. De Bod tried to attack at the red triangle, but then he went too early, while I launched the sprint 300 meters from the finish. It couldn’t have gone better today.”
