The powerful Lenny Martinez proved he is at the top of his game with a late exit from the Trofeo Laiguglia

Lenny Martinez has already achieved his second win of the season. After finishing the photo shoot in the Classic Var, the talented climber from Groupama-FDJ left no doubt this time in the Trofeo Laigueglia. After a solitary attack 10 kilometers from the finish, he defended his lead with gusto.

Hiding behind the numerous altitude meters was not possible today for the cyclists of Trofeo Laigueglia.

On the contrary: early on, a selection of springs opened the discussions upwards. After the hard work of Emirati racer Jean Christine, only seven men remained in the leading group three laps before the end of the race.

Andrea Vendram and in-form man Lenny Martinez (Groupama – FDJ), who has already won the Classic Var this season, used every slippery slope to systematically wear down the opponent.

Successfully: After shaking the tree for a while, Lenny Martinez flapped away on the last climb of the day – Kula Michiri (2km with an average gradient of 8.5%).

Jean-Christin was the only one left somewhat on his heels, but he also had to make a pass after an all-or-nothing descent from his rival. Martinez has already won his second victory of the season.
