La Forza del Destino - Bold moves are often rewarded with with championships; however, attacks that seem to be rooted in pure madness rarely make it all the way to the line for glory. In 1968 on a terribly wet, windy day, a seemingly ridiculous launch with 230k to go in a 285k race, let Vittorio Adorni raise his arms in triumph. The early attack took Adorni and Rick Van Looy, a pre-race contender, out in front of a peleton that was whittled down to 19 of the original 85 starters. Adorni attacked again with 90k to drop Van Looy and a few hangers on. Too early? No - his lead grew exponentially with every lap over the last 5 laps. The final margin was 9'50" over Belgian Hermann Van Springel and 10'18" over fellow Italian Michele Dancelli. One of the most unexpected and dominant championship races ever.
