XCO Italia 
A new event for Montichiari, but the result is still the same
65 athletes attended the Women races. Last weekend 45 Elite, 15 Juniores and 5 MasterWomen chose Montichiari and complete the parterre composed by 1062 bikers, which represents the best result for the Italian Cross Country panorama.

Starting loop and 4 laps composed the Open Women's race, while juniores and Masterwomen's race length was shorter (only 3 laps). The race seemed very similar to the 2009 edition one, characterised by the duo Schneitter-Lechner, who dominated the entire competition. This year the athletes of Team Colnago leaded the race since the starting loop. Their opponents didn't be able to contrast their performance.

Polish Szafraniec competed in the 3rd place, while Zakelj consolidated her 4th place. In the last lap Eva Lechner made a mistake and her teammate was able to defeat her preceding at the finish line. This result replied what happened in Massa Marittima, even if that time Lechner could be able to precede Schneitter. Polish Szafraniec completed the podium and she testified all her happiness "Yesterday I didn't feel well, because of the long trip. I did what I could to complete the race, and I'm very satisfied about the result".

4th place for Tanja Zakelj who preceded Swiss Pointet and Judith Pollinger. Mitterbauer preceded all her opponents in the Junior category. Miriam Corti ended at the 2nd place in the same category, but she wore the new leadership's jersey. 3rd place for Tanner.

Vera Carrara performed too, but as it happened in Massa Marittima her performance was not sufficient.

L'INTERVISTA
Jukka Vastaranta
Ha stupito tutti al campionato europeo marathon di Montebelluna e poi ancora alla Dolomiti Superbike. Nonostante la giovane etą il finlandese non č certo uno sconosciuto agli addetti ai lavori, tanto che Bart Brentjens l'ha voluto nella sua squadra.

Solobike.it: Ciao Jukka, come stai?
Jukka Vastaranta: Molto bene, grazie. Sono a Chamonix e mi sto allenando duro in vista dei prossimi appuntamenti, a partire dalla gara di World Cup di Champery, che dista solo 1 ora da qui.
