Strade Bianche Report

Ricco may be out of his element when it comes to the honorary captain. But he flourished yesterday on the white roads of Tuscany. With the day's first and second place finishers on his team, he picked up a big win and rocketed up the overall standings the way his namesake used to fly up mountain roads. Languishing in 3rd last with just 35 points after the first weekend of racing, he picked up 655 points and moved all the way up to 5th overall. Paddy was second on the day with 525 points. He is lurking right behind Ricco, at 6th overall. And Dallas showed that his demonstration of good form last weekend was no fluke. He tallied 470 points yesterday and moved into the overall lead, 145 points ahead of the Impaler. Charlie held on to third overall. He is at 875 points. And Pete remains in 5th overall.
