'We've got to get back to being the great Ineos team we once were' - Filippo Ganna leads Ineos Grenadiers fight back from the front

FOLLONICA ITALY MARCH 11 Filippo Ganna of Italy and Team INEOS Grenadiers Blue Leader Jersey competes during the 60th TirrenoAdriatico 2025 Stage 2 a 192km stage from Camaiore to Follonica UCIWT on March 11 2025 in Follonica Italy Photo by Tim de WaeleGetty Images.

Filippo Ganna kept the Tirreno-Adriatico race leader's blue jersey on Tuesday as his friend and fellow Italian track rider Jonathan Milan won the sprint stage in Follonica. It was a second day of success from the two most successful and most admired Italian riders in the peloton and a second day of race leadership for Ineos Grenadiers. 

With the peloton riding steady southward near the Tuscan coast, Ganna could enjoy his day as race leader. A year ago he lost the opening time trial to Juan Ayuso after a troubled winter of illness. This year he is leaner, happier and fitter, arguably reflecting the atmosphere inside Ineos Grenadiers.
