“The Lithuanian Gediminas Grinius completed the podium with the time of 13:01’22”. (…)
Krupicka set off watching what his rivals were up to. At the third checkpoint at Federavecchia Gediminas Grinius was the first to arrive followed by Iain Don-Wauchope. At the next checkpoint, at the Auronzo Refuge, Krupicka had already taken first position. Behind him was an unrestrained Fulvio Dapit, who at Cimabanche had gained first position. Unfortunately Dapit, before passing Col Gallina, was forced to drop out, leaving the way free for Krupicka. On the ascent toward the Averau Refuge, the Lithuanian stayed in second position, which he then had to leave to Mike Foote.”
