NEWS

By David Peddie | 09 Jun, 2013

Oscar Vicente secured the first European Cup of his career with victory at the ITU European Sprint race in Cremona.

It was a rocket fuelled race which handed Vicente victory, his 15.32 5km split time was the fastest of the day and allowed him to work his way out of the lead group of 5 athletes after T2 to cross the line in first place.

Germany’s Jonathan Zipf secured his first podium finish since 2008 with a fantastic second place. He just held off the challenge of young Belgian athlete, Jelle Geens, who finished third.

Geens finish earned him his first podium in an Elite race, and the 2011 No.1 ranked Junior athlete will be delighted at the impact made.
