Pascal Ackermann showed a fine pair of sprinting legs, powering to victory on Stage 4 of the Tour de Pologne from Lesko to Sanok (179.4km). Sebastian Molano provided the perfect lead-out to launch Ackermann on the uphill finish as they brought back a late attack from Zdenek Stybar (Quick Step Alpha Vinyl) inside the last 150 metres to the line.
It’s the 5th career stage win in Poland for Ackermann and his second win of 2022 after his early season triumph at the Bredene Koksijde in Belgium. Diego Ulissi now sits 4th overall in the General Classification as Sergio Higuita (Bora Hansgrohe) keeps the lead.
