On the same stage of the Tour du Rwanda where four years ago he achieved his first career victory (the third from Huye to Rusizi) today Jhonatan Restrepo repeats himself: after raising his arms to the sky nine days ago at Tour Colombia wearing his National jersey, today in the heart of Africa he does it for the first time wearing Team Polti Kometa jersey!
Restrepo: “The team did an exceptional job allowing me to stay calm in the peloton until the crucial phases, in the finale I received tremendous assistance from German Gomez…”
Sports director Biagio Conte: “A challenging day, where we had also to replace a wheel for Manuel Peñalver […] while in the descent 3-4 riders crashed including our Serrano. A lot of bad luck, repaid by Jhonatan’s success.”
