Dominated by Chris Froome and Alberto Contador in the mountain stages last week at the Critérium du Dauphiné, Vincenzo Nibali continues to refine his condition in view of the Tour de France with altitude training. He will go to Passo San Pellegrino based in the Dolomites, over 2,000 meters above sea level. He is accompanied by seven of his teammates: Scarponi, Vanotti, Fuglsang, Westra, Kangert, Gruzdev and Grivko, which closely resembles the team that will be on the roads of the Tour de Astana.
The "Shark of Messina" is trying to catch up with the accumulated delay on his two rivals. Heralded as one of the favorites in the race for the yellow jersey, it became clear that there is a big gap between the Brit and Spaniard and the rest of the field during the race won by Andrew Talansky (Garmin-Sharp).
The leader of Astana will return to competition at the championships in Italy online 29 June.
