Lotto Thüringen Ladies Tour: Martina Fidanza sprints to stage 2 victory

A well-timed sprint from Martina Fidanza netted the Italian racer stage 2 of the Lotto Thüringen Ladies Tour in a reduced bunch sprint.

Bursting out of the pack on a right hand bend with some 200 metres go, Fidanza (Ceratizit-WNT Pro Cycling clearly outpaced Barbara Guarischi (SD Worx ProTime) and Maria Guilia Confalonieri (Uno-X Mobility) for the fourth road win of her career.
