Consonni was one of the major players in the World Tour race that hit the scene on the lovely stage of London today. The UAE Team Emirates sprinter came in 5th over the finish line in the Prudential Ride London-Surrey Classic (187 km): the race ended up in a sprint on the straightaway down The Mall (photo Bettini), and German Champion Ackermann (Bora-hansgrohe) prevailed, beating Viviani, Nizzolo, Cortina and Consonni.
