BARCELONA - Andreas Kron took the second stage of the Vuelta Espana on Sunday to give "heartbroken" Lotto Dstny their first World Tour win of the season, two days after the team's first-year pro Tijl De Decker died following a training crash.
After a downpour payed havoc with the opening team time trial round Barcelona on Saturday, and with more rain forecast on Sunday, organisers ruled before the start that times for the general classification would be taken at the foot of the tricky final climb. That allowed Piccolo to reach the 9km mark with enough of an advantage to take the overall lead from compatriot Lorenzo Milesi, one of several riders who crashed during the stage. Milesi eventually crossed the line nearly 14 minutes after Kron.
