Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers) aims for victory in Monday's Tirreno-Adriatico time trial. A four-time winner of this event, Ganna's prior triumphs include three on the Tuscan coast and one on the Adriatic. With 37 career wins, including 30 time trials, he stands as the favorite, especially with Remco Evenepoel absent. Key challengers include Isaac del Toro (UAE Team Emirates-XRG), Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek), Ethan Hayter (Soudal-QuickStep), Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike), and potentially Primož Roglič (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) in his season debut. Ganna, fresh off a win at the Volta ao Algarve, prepares for the cobbled Classics and aims to build momentum. He states, "I hope to make some headlines but not by losing." The time trial course features an 11.5km out-and-back seafront route, a challenge he embraces.
