Overview

• Italy’s Finn, the youngest of 118 starters and in his first U23 season, adds a second rainbow jersey after his junior world title in 2024.
• His decisive move came on the final lap about six kilometres from the finish after earlier race splits on the climbs and cobbles of the Kigali city circuit.
• The course covered roughly 165 kilometres with significant elevation and sections like the cobbled Côte de Kimihurura that made the race highly selective.
• The win follows a strong season that included sixth at the Giro Next Gen, fourth at the Tour de l’Avenir and fourth in the U23 time trial this week.
• Finn races in the Red Bull development pathway, and Italian media report expectations he could step up to the WorldTour in the coming years.
