The Italians have broken the Dutch strangle hold on the Trofeo Karlsberg as Bruno Zana wins the 89 kilometer stage 3b with fellow Italian Luca Wackerman taking third on the day. Despite two tough climbs up the Blieskastel Schlossberg, the 116 rider field came into downtown Homburg all together for four fast circuits. As the peleton approached the line in a massive sprint, Zana proved to have the fastest legs, just beating out Slovenian Marc Dzamastagic by a bike length.
As the riders head into the final stage of 138 kilometers, Dutchman Dylan van Baarte retains his yellow jersey 2 seconds ahead of German Nikias Arndt and 14 seconds ahead of American Lawson Craddock. Austrian Marco Haller wears the Green sprinter’s jersey and Belgian Zico Waeytens takes ownership of the polka dot climber’s jersey. The Dutch Team will begin the final stage as the leader of the team standings.
