Lapeira takes stage 2 and the race lead at the Tour of Poland
Paul Lapeira (Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale) took a clear win in the uphill finish of stage 2 of the Tour of Poland, taking over the race lead in the process. The 25-year-old Frenchman launched an explosive sprint inside the last 200 meters that rapidly put the rest of the field in the rearview mirror, and he hit the line two seconds ahead of runner-up Mathias Vaček (Lidl-Trek).
Victor Langellotti (Ineos Grenadiers) took third on the day. Lapeira, having taken over the GC lead from stage 1 winner Olav Kooij (Visma-Lease a Bike), now has a two-second advantage over Vaček in the overall standings.
