Isaac del Toro (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) took the victory in Milano-Torino, the oldest Classic on the calendar, outpowering Ben Tulett (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Tobias Halland Johannessen (Uno-X Mobility) in a three-up sprint on Wednesday.
Johannessen led out the finale, attacking first in the final kilometre, but Tulett quickly reeled him back in. Del Toro waited patiently in the Brit’s wheel, before launching away in the final 200 metres to celebrate with a bow at the line.
With the return of the iconic climb to the Basilica de Superga deciding the day, the top riders battled it out over two reps of the stinging ascent, with Del Toro benefiting from great work done by Adam Yates and the rest of UAE’s squad throughout the final 25km.
This was the 21-year-old Mexican’s first victory in 2025, after bursting onto the scene during his neo-pro season last year. It also continues a stunning start to the campaign for UAE, with this victory their 19th already.
More to come.
