‘I won’t miss much about the peloton’ – Alessandro De Marchi looks forward to retiring from ‘aggressive’ modern racing

After 15 seasons, Alessandro De Marchi may be approaching the end of his professional career, with the ongoing Tour de Pologne among his final races. However, he says that he won’t miss racing in the modern peloton.

The Italian, rounding out his career at Jayco-AlUla, said in a recent interview that the peloton has “changed too much” during his time racing, noting that there’s “too much aggression” in the modern bunch.
