Lombardy tours with many stars: Hirschi has to get back to work

Marc Hirschi is in top form. However, he will likely move up to the second tier of the UAE team at the Tour of Lombardy. Why?

The cycling season is slowly but surely coming to an end. But there is no sign of boredom. On the contrary. The apparently failed merger of the world’s top teams Jumbo-Visma and Soudal-Quick-Step kept the cycling world in suspense. In addition, the transfer of tour top man Primoz Roglic (33, Slo) to the Bora-Hansgrohe team is causing a sensation: he is expected to win the Tour de France with the German team. And finally, the Tour of Lombardy is the last classic with a good field of participants.

A major star battle is expected on the 238 kilometers from Como to Bergamo: Roglic, the Belgian Remco Evenepoel (23) and Tadej Pogacar (25, Slo) are the most mentioned favorites. In the middle of it, instead of just being there: Marc Hirschi (25) from Bern.

He has seven wins this season – in smaller races, but still. And he is in good form, most recently finishing second twice in Italy, this time the UAE professional has to bow to his captain Pogacar – at least on paper. (gemstone)
