The European Time Trial Champion Edoardo Affini (Visma-Lease a Bike) went out early on today's Individual Time Trial. The racers start in reverse order of where they stand in the general classification so the person in last goes first, and the person in the Maillot Juane of race leader goes last. Don't be fooled by where he started the day, he is a very strong specialist in the 'race of truth.' In fact, he was the fastest when he finished his thirty-three kilometer effort. Unfortunately for him, some of the very, very best were yet to race. Spoiler alert: He concluded the day taking third in the stage.
