Cancellara goes down fighting in his final Milan-San Remo
Trek Segafredo rider held up in late crash
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabian Cancellara (Trek S▨egafredo) was unable to close out his final 🌞Milan-San Remo with a third title after he was isolated and then held up by a crash in the final closing meters.
The race was won by Arnaud Demare (FDJ) after the Frenchman navigated his way through a dramatic final💛e that saw Fernando Gaviria (Etixx-Quickstep) hit the deck with 300 meter𒈔s to go.
That f𝄹all held up Cancellara and Peter Sagan, with both of the pre-race favourites losing their momentum with the finish line in sight.
“I was slowly closing, and on the ꦆchicane Gaviria crashed, and Peter and I just missed going down. You can call us lucky guys, but in the end, no results. Not what I was expecting - I was racing to win. I🍃n the end I gave up, it was over,” Cancellara said at the finish.
"It was quite difficult because I was isolated and I was a target fo𝐆r all the riders, especially on the [Poggio] climb," Cancellara said.
The race came along on the Cipressa and 💎then the Poggio with Mi๊chal Kwiatkowski putting in a serious attack.
"Kwiatkowski did a nice move, Tꦏinkoff had to close, and then Nibali attacked over the top, and I was just following and letting him do the work, but then he saw it was me, and it 🌟was over,” Cancellara said, describing the action.

Cancellara helped to pull the Team Sky rider back after the descent and even threw in his own late attack. However, he was a marked man, and the race eventual🐎ly came down to a sprint.
"At the bottom, I thought they were going quite slow, and I went, but I didn’t get much of a gap before Trentin closed it, and Gaviria was yelling at him to go, go, go!”
