Cycling: Jan Christen has won the Trofeo Calvià. The Swiss rider attacked in the final kilometers and was able to distance himself from his companions.
Jan Christen confirms his early form
It was already apparent at the Gran Premi València one-day race a few days ago that Jan Christen (UAE – XRG) is in impressive early form. Now he has shown it again in the first race of the Mallorca Challenge. The Swiss wins the 149,6th edition of the Trofeo Calvià after 24 kilometers with start and finish in Palmanova ahead of the Italian Christian Scaroni (XDS – Astana) and his teammate Antonio Morgado (UAE – XRG) from Portugal. In the coming days, more one-day races will be held on Mallorca. Tomorrow, the Swiss Marc Hirschi and the Eritrean Biniam Girmay will compete in the Trofeo Ses Salines.
| What a gift from Jan Christen! The top talent from Zwitserland is one of the quickest in winning the Challenge Mallorca. What a success will begin in 2025 for UAE Team Emirates.
