Chiarini takes his first professional win
De Rosa rider beats Bertagnolli
Italy’s Riccardo Chiarini (De Rosa – Stac Plastic) won his first race as a professional, beating Leonardo Bertagnolli (Androni Giocattoli) to take the Trofeo Matteotti on the Italian Adriatic coast on Sunday.
Miguel Angel Rubiano Chavez (Meridiana) and Domenico Pozzovivo (Colnago-CSF Inox) were the only riders able to stay with the two on the final lap of the testing race around Pescara but Chiarini out powered them all.
Oscar Gatto (Isd-Neri) won the sprint for fifth place just seven seconds behind, under the watchful eye of new Italian national coach Paolo Bettini. Italian national champion Giovanni Visconti (ISD-Neri) was ninth at 13 seconds after trying to go across to the four in the final kilometres.
