Top-20 for Kotulski on Tactical Stage 2 in Lithuania

Stage 2 of the Tour of Lithuania saw the Team Novo Nordisk Development Team deliver a smart and focused performance in tough conditions, with Przemysław Kotulski sprinting to a solid top-20 finish in a reduced front group.

What looked like a straightforward day on paper quickly turned tactical as rain and crosswinds shaped it into a selective and challenging battle. As the race split under pressure, Hjalte Knudsen and Przemysław made the front, setting the team up for a strong finish.

“Przemysław was looking strong and well-positioned for a top result,” said Development Team Sports Director Sergey Lagutin. “In the last 300 meters, he got boxed in by a rider moving off line, which stalled his sprint—but he still managed a solid top-20. It was a good performance from the whole group.”
