Filippo Ganna secured an impressive second place overall at the Vuelta a San Juan.
 
The Italian finished on the runner-up step of the podium for the third time in the last four editions with an assured ride across the week in Argentina.
 
The foundations for Ganna’s podium were laid on Friday’s queen stage, with a gutsy second place atop the Alto Colorado. Ganna finished 30 seconds back on overall victor Miguel Angel Lopez (Medellin-EPM), while Brandon Rivera made it an even stronger week for the team with fifth place on GC.
 
The Colombian came home 1:01 back on his compatriot after a consistent week of racing. Egan Bernal also enjoyed some encouraging results during his first race of the year, finishing fourth on the queen stage before being forced to depart the race early.
 
The final stage saw the peloton tackle a loop around San Juan with a bunch sprint concluding with a victory from Sam Welsford (Team DSM).
