With an impressive attack in the final, Davide Ballerini won today’s Road Race at the European Games in Minsk. He won the gold medal for the national team of Italy.
- I knew I had to attack to avoid a sprint and I found the right moment for that! I just attacked, looked behind my shoulder, understood that nobody followed me and since that moment just gave my best, pushing as hard as I could. And this worked out perfectly. Of course, I am super happy with my gold medal. I want to thank all my teammates of the Italian Team for this race. Also, I want to thank my Astana Pro Team, the management allowed me to do this race, they even changed my schedule for that, - said Davide Ballerini.
