"Thanks to all my team-mates with who we had a perfect race. We were able to do everything that we said this morning in a meeting and I was touched when they finalized their great work. I knew that Finetto was one of the athletes there was to be feared most, that's why I followed him from under la flame rouge and when he left in the final with 300 meters to,” Colbrelli told the Bardiani website.

“I did not lose a second to counter him. Then he began to slow down in the vicinity arrival, I went out on the right and I gave it all, managing to win with a good margin. At the finish line I did with my hands the gesture of a heart because I want to dedicate this fifth victory of 2014 to my girlfriend Adelina,” Colbrelli finished.
