Jack Haig arguably produced the performance of the day at the Tour of the Alps, and so had few regrets about being caught in the final kilometre of the opening stage around Rattenberg.
The Australian was caught and passed by the overall contenders and lost 24 seconds to stage winner and first race leader Tao Geoghegan Hart (Ineos Grenadiers) but was happy to show he is on form for this week in the Austrian and Italian Alps and especially as the Giro d’Italia nears.
