“Given the fact this was the last race before the World Cup season, this final rehearsal was very important to me. It was a tactical race on a great course. It was difficult to make differences, but I played my cards well in the final,” Sarrou said after his victory.
The Italian cyclist of Team BMC grew up on the slopes of the race course, gaining his experiences as a kid with a local club called Velo Club Monte Tamaro in 2016 and 2017. "And always on BMC bikes," Zanotti says, pointing at a photo from back in the days.
Team BMC showcased their kit, BMC Fourstroke 01, and introduced new assets such as SKF’s bearings and Motul bike maintenance products. The racing apparel by Assos underwent a subtle makeover compared to last season. Notably, Team BMC’s pilots will be sporting white Abus helmets, white Sidi shoes, and white Assos socks in 2024.
