Breakthrough Italian national road race title for Nizzolo

Giacomo Nizzolo turned around his recent run of near misses in Boario Terme to claim arguably the biggest victory of his career by winning the Italian tricolour jersey. Nizzolo, who has won the Giro d'Italia points classification victory in the last two editions of the race, got the better of Etixx-Quick Step's Gianluca Brambilla in a two-up sprint.
