The stage was divided in four laps of a circuit around Roseto degli Abruzzi, including the short climb of Piana degli Ulivi (Cat. 3 KOM in the penultimate lap). The average speed of the first hour was over 40 km/h and it could not permit many attacks in the first kilometers. Alexis Ryan (Canyon SRAM) and the local athlete Carmela Cipriani of Conceria Zabri – Fanini – Guerciotti Team (she lives in Spoltore, near Pescara) earned only a few seconds. At the beginning of the lap 3 Claudia Koster (Team Veloconcept) and Alison Jackson (BePink- Cogeas) tried for a breakaway, the Canadian of the Italian Team directed by Walter Zini leaded the race at the intermediate sprint of Pagliare. The acceleration of the peloton was strong and the three riders Hannah Barnes (Canyon SRAM), Soraya Paladin (Alè – Cipollini – Galassia) and Sofia Bertizzolo (Astana Women’s Team). The Brit won the KOM of Piana degli Ulivi and she could earn a maximal gap of 48“. The teams of the sprinters didn’t want to lose this chance and the breakaway was catched by the peloton a few kilometers later. Even the last transit from Piana degli Ulivi could give the chances of a „finisseur“ attack so the bunch sprint was launched. Lotta Lepistö from Finland took the stage win, with Coryn Rivera and Giorgia Bronzini just behind. A gap of 3“ could give the possibility to Anna Van der Breggen to earn time against her main rivals Elisa Longo Borghini and Annemiek Van Vleuten in the General Classification.

Für ihre zweite Auflage kehrte die UCI Cycling Gala in die Hauptstadt der Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate zurück und wurde erneut vom Abu Dhabi Sports Council und der United Arab Emirates Cycling Federation in Zusammenarbeit mit RCS Sport veranstaltet. Es dauerte zwei Tage vor dem vier-etappen Radrennen der Emirate der Abu Dhabi Tour (20.-23. Oktober).

ABU DHABI TOUR TEAM VORSTELLUNG
Neben der Veranstaltung wurden die Teams, die an der Abu Dhabi Tour teilnahmen, beginnend am Donnerstag 20 und Ende am Sonntag, 23. Oktober auf der Bühne vorgestellt.

Neben den Titelpreisen an die diesjährigen UCI World Champions und WorldTour-Sieger, war es einer der Olympiaden, die heute Abend einen weiteren Sonderpreis bei der UCI Cycling Gala erhielten: Elia Viviani. „Der Gewinnende Geist“ ist ein einzigartiger Abu Dhabi Sports Council Preis für den Fahrer, der Hartnäckigkeit, Stärke und unbeugsamen Geist in der Erreichung des Sieges in diesem Jahr zeigte.

Mit drei großen Radsportveranstaltungen in der gleichen Woche im Mittleren Osten, freuen wir uns sehr darauf, dass Abu Dhabi im globalen Radsport der sportliche Scheinwerfer ist. “

Die UCI Cycling Gala gibt uns die Gelegenheit, einige der phänomenalen Leistungen aus einer unvergesslichen Saison zu feiern.
