After the eighth and last stage of the Tour of Mendoza 2024, Laureano Rosas, from Buenos Aires, kept the leader’s jersey he had achieved the day before and was crowned for the second time in the Mendoza Tour, as it happened in the 2022 edition.
Rosas, of the Swift Carbon Pro Cycling team, took the overall victory based on a great performance in the queen stage that on Saturday climbed to Cristo Redentor, obtaining a sufficient advantage in the leadership of the general classification, in which Agustín Durán of Venzo and Nicolás Paredes of SEP San Juan, completed the podium, in that order.
The winner of stage 8 was Leonardo Cobarrubia, but Rosas maintained his first place in the overall ahead of Agustín Durán of Team Venzo, while the podium was completed by Colombian Nicolás Paredes of SEP San Juan, last year’s winner. The last stage started in Guaymallén, went through the traditional Paso Street circuit in Maipú and finished in Godoy Cruz, with a finish in the Corredor del Oeste.
Mario Ovejero, the representative of the Municipality of San Carlos, finished in eighth place, being the second best rider from Mendoza in the final table. Nahuel Méndez, from the Municipality of Guaymallén, was the best rider from Mendoza, finishing fourth.
