KAPAR: The fluorescent yellow outfit of Vini Fantini shone the brightest as Italian Francesco Chicchi captured Stage Four of the Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) by pipping compatriot Andrea Guardini of Astana and Lithuanian Aidis Kruopis of Orica GreenEdge at the finish line yesterday.
Chicchi crossed the line first in a hectic bunch sprint to complete the 168km stage from Tapah in 3’44:22. It was Vini Fantini’s first stage win in the LTdL. The result, however, did not alter the overall classification, with Wang Meiyin of Hengxiang Cycling still leading the way.
