Damiano Cunego (Lampre-NGC) doubled up in Coppi e Bartali on Thursday with a second stage win in Serramazzoni, just 24 hours after his victory in Faenza. The Italian from Verona beat Australia's Cadel Evans (Silence-Lotto) to the line in a two-up sprint.
Cunego took the leader's jersey from overnight wearer Giovanni Visconti (ISD).
"The victory today was more complicated than yesterday," Cunego explained. "Thanks to the perfect performance by my teammates I had only to finalize their work with the victory. Now I aim to maintain the leadership until the end of the Coppi e Bartali.".
