After
Meron has already showed the last two days with 2 times top 10 that he
is in a promising shape, the whole team was motivated to step up with
great results on today's stage. Knowing about the strength of the fast
man from Eritrea, the team wanted to support Meron with no comprimise.
In
the final of the stage the team led Meron out in a perfect position to
start his sprint and he finished with a great performance only beaten by
Jakub Mareczko from Italian Procontinental team Wilier Trestina. Marko
Kump from World Tour team Lampre – Merida completed the podium on place
3, who already won 2 stages of this year's Tour of Qinghai Lake.
After
taking this great result, Meron Teshome said with a big smile on his
face: "today was a perfect day. The whole team comitted yesterday to
work very hard to bring me in a good position and the guys did a great
job. In the end I had the pressure to finalize the good work and to
finish 2nd in such a big race with such great sprinters is just
awesome".
