Simoni heads Lampre for Lombardy

Gilberto Simoni, winner of the Giro dell'Emilia last Saturday, will lead the Lampre-Caffita team in the Giro di Lombardia this coming Saturday. "Gilberto Simoni is in a great moment and he will be naturally the only leader of the team for Lombardy. I hope Damiano Cunego will be on a good day to help Gilberto," commented Lampre's DS Giuseppe Martinelli.
