HALLE-INGOOIGEM 2015, VINCE BOUHANNI
Nacer Bouhanni ha già raggiunto la forma ideale per l’imminente Tour de France, dove sarà uno degli uomini da battere nelle volate. Lo ha dimostrato alla corsa belga Halle-Ingooigem dove, a due settimane dalla partenza della Grande Boucle, il velocista transalpino con passato da boxeur le ha ‘’suonate” ai corridori di casa Boeckmans e Theuns
Pronti via ed è un quintetto ben assortito a prendere il largo. Al comando vi sono Xandro Meurisse (An Post-ChainRaction), Sam Lennertz (Vastgoedservice-Golden Palace), David Boucher (FDJ), Paulius Siskevicius (An Post-ChainReaction) e Dieter Vanthourenhout (Sunweb-Napoleon Games), ai quali il plotone lascia ampio margine. Ai 150 km dal traguardo si registra il vantaggio massimo dei battistrada, 9 minuti, e da questo punto in poi anche le squadre dei big di giornata iniziano a far sul serio, su tutte la Cofidis e la Etixx-Quick Step, rispettivamente per Bouhanni e Boonen.
Il ritmo serrato del gruppo non lascia scampo ai fuggitivi da lontano, ma il ricongiungimento a 10 km dal traguardo apre le porte ad un tentativo da finisseurs di un gruppetto agguerrito composto da Jelle Wallays (Topsport Vlaandere), Sep Vanmarcke (Lotto NL-Jumbo), George Soupe (Cofidis), Kenny Dehaes (Lotto Soudal) e Nikolas Maes (Etixx-QuickStep), ultimo a mollare sotto il triangolo rosso dell’ultimo chilometri. Giunti negli ultimi metri la volata diventa a ranghi ridotti a causa di una brutta caduta che taglia fuori alcuni dei protagonisti, fra i quali l’azzurro Eugenio Alafaci della Trek. Anche per questo, è gioco facile per Bouhanni tagliare il traguardo davanti a tutti, alla ricerca della migliore condizione in vista dell’imminente Tour de France.
