Matteo Trentin (UAE Team Emirates) won the Giro del Veneto one-day race from a five-man break, outsprinting Rémy Rochas (Cofidis) after the Frenchman lost ground coming out of the final corner.

Second in the same late-season race last year, Trentin was determined not to let the 159.2 kilometre hilly event pass him by a second time. He took UAE Team Emirates' 49th victory of the 2022 season.
