Jonathan Milan has won the fourth stage in the Tirreno-Adriatico. The Italian narrowly beat Jasper Philipsen and Corbin Strong on a difficult finish, he is also the new leader. Tim Merlier had to let go of the peloton in the final and was unable to sprint.

The fourth stage in Tirreno-Adriatico (Arrone-Giulianova) had the traditional course of a (relatively) flat stage: six escapees (Lorenzo Quartucci, Davide Bais, Mirco Maestri, Alexander Kamp, Jonas Abrahamsen, Alex Tolio) were in the spotlight. , but the sprinter teams joined forces and kept the lead under control. Under the impetus of Soudal Quick-Step for Tim Merlier, Lidl-Trek for Jonathan Milan and Alpecin-Deceuninck for Jasper Philipsen, the lead of the leading group had shrunk to one minute fifteen kilometers from the finish. At that time, the leading group was only three riders large, because Kamp, Maestri and Abrahamsen had thrown their fellow escapees overboard. Cavendish was no longer in the peloton, because he could not keep up with the high pace.

Merlier has to drop out

And the bumpy course also claimed a victim on the Belgian side. Merlier had to let go of the peloton about ten kilometers from the finish. He would not win this stage either.

The three escapees fought for all they were worth and three kilometers from the finish still had a fifteen second lead over the peloton, where Soudal Quick-Step still got involved in the debates despite Merlier’s absence. Did they believe in Julian Alaphilippe’s chances at the tricky finish?

In the last kilometer, Abrahamsen threw his fellow escapees overboard and because there were some doubts in the peloton, he seemed to be on his way to the stage victory. Pidcock saw the danger and started very early, but rolled out the red carpet for the fast men in his wheel.

Philipsen seemed to time his sprint perfectly, but Jonathan Milan worked his way to the front and was slightly faster than Philipsen at the finish. Corbin Strong came third, Biniam Girmay just missed the podium. Thanks to the bonus seconds, Milan is also the new leader.

Belgian gymnastics talent Erika Pinxten beats Nina Derwael in Cairo and becomes a major competitor towards the Olympic Games

Do gymnastics

Nina Derwael performed a beam exercise of 13.030 during her comeback in Cairo. Good for a provisional sixth place, but less good than Erika Pinxten from Hasselt with 13.230. The two Limburg girls threaten to become competitors in the battle for the same Olympic ticket.

Nina Derwael (23) has made her comeback in Egypt, 472 days after the 2022 World Cup in Liverpool, where she won bronze. After her shoulder operation, De Truiense is not yet fit enough for a bridge exercise and is trying to qualify for the Olympic Games on beam.

At the first of four World Cups she performed 13.030, which is less good than the 13.850 she achieved in Liverpool in 2020. A fall during the take-off was not unusual. Derwael finished sixth and also had to let Hasselt’s Erika Pinxten go first. Derwael’s 16-year-old clubmate scored 13.230, the second score after the British Ondine Achampong.

Olympic tickets

In the battle for the two Olympic tickets you have to eliminate all gymnasts who have already qualified, such as Achampong. That puts Pinxten in the lead on that purified list, ahead of Derwael. But because they are both in the final, that order could change on Sunday. In any case, the two Limburg girls are now in danger of becoming competitors of each other, because two tickets for Paris can be earned on beam, but only one is handed out per country.

Derwael and Pinxten will meet each other on Sunday in the final in Cairo, and then perhaps again in Cottbus, Baku and Doha. The best of those four World Cups can go to Paris. Pinxten is also the first reserve after the World Cup in Antwerp; If a girl who qualified at that time were to drop out, she would be allowed to take that route to Paris.

Pinxten not only scored strongly on the beam, but also on the floor exercise. There she finished fourth and second on the refined ‘Olympic’ list. The final will also be contested on that device on Sunday.

Wout van Aert beats Gerben Thijssen in the Tour of the Algarve

Wout van Aert has won the third stage in the Tour of the Algarve. In the bunch sprint he beat Gerben Thijssen.

After the muscle flexing between the classification men, another stage followed on Friday that was marked by a dot for the sprinters. Gerben Thijssen, decked out in the green points jersey, was looking for a two out of two after taking control of the opening stage. He certainly did not have to fear competition from Wout van Aert. The Kempen resident indicated in advance that he did not want to take any risks. At Lidl-Trek there was another fellow countryman, Edward Theuns, who had set his sights on this stage.

There was no Belgian in the traditional flight. With Afonso Eulálio, Carlos Salgueiro, António Ferreira, Frederico Figueiredo and Francisco Morais, there are five Portuguese. The Argentinian Nicolás Tivani and the Spaniard Raúl Rota were part of this seven-man leading group, which was given a lead of around three minutes by the peloton to cycle in the spotlight for much of the day.

The sprinter teams were the most active in that peloton. Including Bora-hansgrohe (for Jordi Meeus and leader Daniel Felipe Martinez), Arkéa-B&B (for Arnaud Démare), EF Education-EasyPost (for Marijn van den Berg) and Intermarché-Wanty (mainly for Gerben Thijssen, although Vito was also Braet from the party) showed themselves at the front.

At 80 kilometers from the finish, northern neighbor Marijn van den Berg was allowed to put his profit ambitions aside. Together with a lot of others, the Dutchman had a serious fall. Unlike Van den Berg, teammate Rui Costa was forced to leave the race. He is feared to have a broken collarbone.

After the last ‘climb’ of the day – on the Faz Fato (4.7 km at a gradient of 3.3) – only three escapees remained. Tivani, Figueiredo and Salgueiro had a lead of 1’20” at that moment. A margin that was impossible to maintain with 30 kilometers to go.

Ultimately it was home rider Salgueiro who tried to hold on as the ‘last man standing’, but the 15 final kilometers were for the peloton. Wout van Aert appeared two kilometers from the finish. He went all out for his chance and finished it off nicely. The man from Visma Lease a Bike reassembled Gerben Thijssen, among others.

The aforementioned report reveals that more than half of Spain are above that average.

Thus, 21 provinces of nine communities -Galicia, Asturias, Castilla y León, Andalucía, Cataluña, Comunidad Valenciana, Castilla-La Mancha, Aragón and Canarias) and, in some cases widely, 10 suicides/100,000 inhabitants.

Lugo is the one with the highest rate, 15.6, followed by Zamora (14.2) and Jaén (13.1); A Coruña and Asturias both presented 12.93; Soria (12.30); Basin (12.06); Las Palmas (11.81); Malaga (11.67); Cordoba (11.65); Palencia (11.35); Huesca (11.29); Teruel (11.25); Pontevedra (11.24); Granada (11.20); Burgos (11); Castellon (10.57); Ourense (10.49); Girona; (10.47); Leon (10.11); Avila (10.05).

And above the world average of 9 are also Almería (9.57); Ciudad Real (9.55); Tarragona (9.26); Navarra (9.12) and Cádiz (9.06).

On the extreme side are Guadalajara and Madrid, with rates of 4.52 and 5.3/100,000 inhabitants, respectively.

However, if the increase is considered, between 2020 and 2021 the most significant increases occurred in Melilla (29.1%), Lérida (26.1%), Palencia (22.5%), Zamora (22.5%) and Navarra (16.8%). On the contrary, in another 22 they decreased, where more in Segovia (25.8% less); Biscay (13.7%); Guadalajara (13.4%) and Ávila (12.7%).
