Former Italian champion Giovanni Visconti was on the attack on two occasions in the last ten kilometres of stage 2 during the Presidential Tour of Turkey today. The characteristics of the finale couldn't prevent him from being brought back by HTC-Columbia but it was interesting to notice that André Greipel himself reacted when the ISD-Neri rider made his first move while his teammates did the job behind other riders. "That means he considered me dangerous," Visconti said after dinner in Bodrum.
