GP Costa degli Etruschi podium history

Saturday, February 7: 193 km

What a jump! Petacchi was blindingly fast in the sprint. In these 2 pictures by Sirotti you can see him just ride away from the pack. Guarnieri is too far to the right to be seen in the bottom picture, but he's a good half-bike-length behind.
