Alessandro Covi (Jayco AlUla) claimed an impressive victory at the 90th edition of Giro del Veneto. The 28-year-old Italian took his first win in Team Jayco AlUla colours. Covi’s early sprint was too much for his rivals in the closing metres of the uphill drag to the line, allowing the Italian to take a special win in his home country. “It’s the end of the season; a lot guys are tired - me too - but it’s nice to win and with the Team Jayco AlUla jersey. It has been 10 months waiting for this victory and it is a super feeling. In the plan, Andrea Vendrame was the guy for the sprint but in the middle of the circuit he came to me and said that he didn’t feel super good and told me to stay calm and don’t move and we wait for the sprint in the end. I did exactly what he said. I didn’t move, I always stayed in the front group, and I just tried for the sprint and, in the end, I won. It was super nice that Andrea gave me this chance.” -Alessandro Covi
