Second national title in the discipline for Zoccarato, he was already champion in 2022.
Samuele Zoccarato claimed a magnificent victory at the Italian Gravel Championships held in Golferenzo, launching a masterful attack during the second lap to secure his second Italian Gravel Championship title in a solo ride. He finished 5 minutes ahead of his teammate Luca Colnaghi, who also claimed a podium finish in the tricolor race.
Samuele Zoccarato’s Statement:
“I’m incredibly happy with the result, but it was a grueling race. I focused on staying close to the MTB and Gravel specialists, aware of my technical limitations. However, I proved my fitness and gained enough of a margin to manage the more technical sections at my own pace. It’s an honor to wear the tricolor jersey, and I’ll strive to uphold its prestige in upcoming gravel competitions.”
