Tirreno-Adriatico 2018, the Favourites Classification
We have already since left behind two out to seven stages of the Tirreno-Adriatico 2018 and the peloton in facing on stage 3 the first climbs for this edition of the Corsa dei due Mari. Although the opening stage and the second one have been two flat ones, the overall classification is already well-defined due to the gaps opened thoughout the team time trial which started and finished in Lido di Camaiore. Patrick Bevin (BMC Racing) is the new overall leader but all the BMC athletes holds on at the same timing. Adam Yates (Mitchelton-Scott), Primoz Roglic (Lotto Nl-Jumbo) and Simon Spilak (Katusha-Alpecin) have been involved in the crash that occurred yesterday with over 6 kilometers remaining and lost ground in the GC.
