Juan Ayuso won stage 6 of Tirreno-Adriatico, outperforming Filippo Ganna and other competitors to claim the overall lead. The young Spaniard demonstrated control and strength throughout the race, setting the stage for intense competition in upcoming stages. The battle for podium positions intensified among Antonio Tiberi, Filippo Ganna, and Derek Gee, all vying for time bonuses. With the next stage expected to be a sprint finish involving top sprinters, including Mathieu van der Poel, the excitement is building for a thrilling conclusion to the event.
Mathieu van der Poel is one of the riders to try an early attack but he is soon caught. Perhaps the Dutchman is looking for a last hard day out before he rests up and prepares for next Saturday's Milan-San Remo.
Cyclingnews was at the summit finish of Tirreno-Adriatico on Saturday to see Juan Ayuso win stage 6 and take the race lead from Ganna. It was a controlled and impressive effort from the young Spaniard, who appears back to his best.
After a short neutralised sector, the stage is underway! Juan Ayuso and UAE Team Emirates seem in control of the GC but there could be a battle for the mid-stage time bonus as Antonio Tiberi, Filippo Ganna and Derek Gee fight for the final podium places.
We're expecting a sprint royale, with Jonathan Milan, Olav Kooij, Paul Magnier, Mathieu van der Poel, Sam Bennett, Dylan Groenwegen and other others, to fight for the stage victory.
