È Sylvain Chavanel il vincitore della Tre Giorni di La Panne 2012. Il campione francese della Omega Pharma-Quick Step agguanta la classifica finale, scatenando gli applausi per come ha saputo vincere la cronometro individuale, prova che chiudeva la tre giorni belga.
Nella prova contro il tempo svoltasi ieri pomeriggio a La Panne, Chavanel ha battuto per 4″ l’olandese Lieuwe Westra (Vacansoleil-DCM) e per 17″ il campione canadese Svein Tuft (GreenEdge), andando così a conquistare un altro successo per l’Omega Pharma-Quick Step (il 28° dall’inizio della stagione!). Jacopo Guarnieri (Astana), uno dei possibili favoriti per la vittoria finale, ha un po’ deluso le aspettative giungendo solo a 1′ 56″ da Chavanel.
Nella mattina di ieri si era disputata la terza semitappa, 112,1 km sempre a La Panne, con vittoria allo sprint di Alexander Kristoff (Katusha) davanti ad Andre Schulze (NetApp) e Kenny Van Hummel (Vacansoleil-DCM). Tra coloro che non avevano preso il via, Peter Sagan (Liquigas-Cannondale).
Ora l’attesa è tutta per il Giro delle Fiandre di domenica e, con uno Chavanel così in forma, possiamo solo immaginare la forza di un team come l’Omega Pharma-Quick Step…
