Matteo Jorgenson conceded that there was little more he could have done to beat Isaac del Toro (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) at Tirreno Adriatico, after moving up to second overall on the final day thanks to a perfectly executed intermediate sprint by his Visma-Lease a Bike team.
Del Toro took the blue jersey and trident trophy by 40 seconds over Jorgenson, with the US rider overtaking Giulio Pellizzari (Red Bull-Bora-hansgrohe) with the three seconds he gained at the sprint. He lost the majority of his deficit on the second stage after crashing in the gravel section, but having also lost time to the Mexican during the time trial and yesterday's uphill finish, Jorgenson had few regrets.
