終點線上絕殺對手 特恩斯穿上黃色領騎衫

終點線上絕殺對手 特恩斯穿上黃色領騎衫

距離前一勝將近兩年 比利時主將迎來夢想成真的一刻

「這是別具意義的一勝，我的前一場世巡賽勝利在波蘭，距離現在幾乎已經有兩年的時間，拿下這座單站冠軍感覺非常好！」

    「這是夢想成真的一刻，我非常驕傲能穿上這件領騎衫，並且贏得我的第一隻獅子，我將會持續戰鬥，力求守護黃衫的最高榮譽。」 

    「馬丁是我在前線的好夥伴，我們一起以領先的姿態，通過最後的陡坡路段，我很幸運能有他同行，直到最後的一對一衝刺階段， 非常開心能贏得這場比賽。」

     先是加入本站後發的突圍集團，並且在過程的篩選中保持領先，特恩斯(Dylan Teuns)與馬丁(Guillaume Martin)的雙人小組，一路挺進至最後的決勝階段。此時此刻，後方成員們已經拆解成一個個小集團，但他們身後的主將們，仍把秒差控制在半分鐘之內。

     終點前5公里，皮諾(Thibaut Pinot)的攻擊帶出第二集團的連鎖反應，最終仍沒有成員能脫離掌握，但沒有放棄互相傷害彼此，在不斷的拉扯當中，進站的里程已經逐步接近。我們的主將一路領騎，當馬丁啟動之際，一度看似要與冠軍擦肩而過，但最終的全速衝刺，仍將單站冠軍收入手中！

    「能拿下今天的好成績，我們全隊都很開心。最後一刻，唯有輸出最強的人才能拿下勝利，而他贏得比賽的方式，就像一位真正的冠軍車手。這一勝也讓我們對於未來的賽段深具信心，特恩斯和車隊的表現實至名歸，而我們接下來，將會嘗試守護這件黃色領騎衫。」帶隊的運動總監弗拉迪米爾(Vladimir Miholjević)如是說。

     完成小環法第二站，特恩斯暫時以3秒領先馬丁，後方的主將群差距都在半分鐘以內，激烈的比拼才正要開始。比較遺憾的是，昨夜共有9名車手未能完賽，巴林美利達的馮俊凱也在其中，他也在賽後分享自己當前的狀態。

    「今天沒完賽，在環羅曼蒂摔車後，雖然恢復訓練，但體能確實沒辦法負荷這種高水準的比賽。感覺今天身體恢復不過來，一開始就很吃力，現在只能繼續調整到該有的水準。雖然明天無法幫黃衫領騎覺得可惜，但是希望自己可以儘快恢復！」

The BAHRAIN MERIDA PRO CYCLING TEAM headed for the Critérium du Dauphiné with the clear objective to win stages. Thanks to a strong performance by Dylan Teuns this goal has been met after only two stages. At other races, Matej Mohoric finished on the podium twice this weekend.

The Critérium du Dauphiné stage race is considered an important test for the Tour de France and is being organized for the 71st time this year. While the three conclusive stages of the race lead through the Alps of the Haute Savoye region, the organizers have decided to try something new by starting the race in the Massif Central. The BAHRAIN MERIDA PRO CYCLING TEAM is fielding a decidedly international team for the eight-day race, with its seven riders coming from six countries. The main focus of the team is on Sonny Colbrelli as the team’s sprint specialist and Dylan Teuns as the captain for the overall standings. These two can rely on the support of Chun-kai Feng, Mark Padun, Hermann Pernsteiner, Luka Pibernik and Jan Tratnik. The first stage already featured an undulating profile with a solid number of climbs. Three riders tried to outwit the peloton with a long-range attack in the finale, but they were caught on the last kilometre. A thinned-out peloton of 61 riders approached the finish line to sprint for the win. Unfortunately, another rider bumped into Sonny Colbrelli and kept him from accelerating properly, so he crossed the finish line in 6th.

With three climbs of the 2nd category, four of the 3rd category and a fourth-category climb over a distance of 180 kilometres, the profile of the second stage looked like a proper Ardennes classic. Rain and low temperatures made for even harder conditions, and early on a 13-rider lead group including some big names went up the road. The peloton decided to keep this group on a short leash, and the last attackers were caught with about 35 kilometres to go. From there the race was on and another group of riders went on the attack. Dylan Teuns and Guillaume Martin made good use of this group as their springboard, accelerating away on the final categorized climb. The duo cooperated well to defend its lead over the remaining 18 kilometres, chased by a high-quality group of overall contenders. Teuns took the lead into the final kilometre and almost got caught by surprise by Martin who went around him in the last corner, but he managed to claw back the Frenchman and pass him with a long and powerful sprint. Thanks to his stage win the Belgian also took over the leader’s jersey. 

For Teuns it was the first win since joining the team, and for the BAHRAIN MERIDA PRO CYCLING TEAM, it was the fourth win of the season. «I’m super happy with this win. This is a special one as I had to wait almost 24 months for it. The pace was very high from the start, also because of an early attack by a strong group. And the weather made things even harder», Dylan Teuns commented before the podium ceremony. «From where we attacked on the final categorized climb, Guillaume Martin and I cooperated really well all the way into the final kilometre, and then things came down to a fight man against man. Getting to wear the leader’s jersey of the Dauphiné is a dream getting real.»

On Sunday some other riders in red, gold and dark blue had been competing in Switzerland at the GP Lugano one-day race, won by Hermann Pernsteiner one year ago. Seen the course, Matej Mohoric and Vincenzo Nibali were most likely to score a good result, and they could rely on the support of Andrea Garosio, Antonio Nibali, Domen Novak and Meiyin Wang. As the race proceeded a strong six-rider group set off up front with Mohoric and Nibali, and Vincenzo Nibali and Diego Ulissi rode clear from this group. But on the last lap of the local circuit, these two were brought back, and then the rain set in on the final descent into Lugano. Nibali decided to ride in support of his younger teammate as the stronger sprinter, but Matej Mohoric did not have the necessary acceleration to finish better than in 3rd. One day earlier Mohoric had finished on the podium as well, scoring a 2nd place at Slovenia’s national time trial championships. Just like his BAHRAIN MERIDA PRO CYCLING TEAM teammate Jan Tratnik who finished 3rd as defending champion, he was beaten by Slovenia’s prodigy Tadej Pogacar.
