Barla in Saeco 1-3

24 yeear old Luca Barla (San Paolo Saeco) has won the 31st edition of Menton-Savona, a race for elite and under 23 riders. Barla beat Luca Cappa (Sanpellegrino) and Ukranian champion Roman Luhovyy (San Paolo Saeco), completing a good result for team director Pier Giovanni Baldini.

The race was shortened by 24 kilometres due to weather conditions. Rain and snow forced the organisers to renounce the last lap, leaving out the climb of Albisola Superiore.
