Marc Hirschi took 2nd place in the Gran Piemonte, a semi-classic held in northern Italy, and won his twelfth podium of the season.
The Swiss champion was only beaten by the Italian Andrea Bagioli, who sprinted past his three breakaway companions, Alex Aranburu finishing 3rd and Guillaume Martin 4th. The four men had isolated themselves at the front by breaking away from the peloton 17km from the finish.
