This race, held in the town of Peccioli in Tuscany, Italy, is part of the UCI Europe Tour and is known for its challenging terrain.

He finished ahead of Clément Venturini of Unibet Rose Rockets and Romain Grégoire of Groupama-FDJ United. This result marked a notable achievement, as all three riders on the podium were French. At 30 years old, Cosnefroy secured his 26th professional victory, adding to his tally of five wins this year. The race highlighted his consistency and ability to perform in high-pressure situations. His win also underscored the growing prominence of French cyclists in professional racing.
