Bardiani-CSF 7 Saber opened the Giro della Sardegna with a performance full of substance and determination. In the first stage, the 189.5 km Castelsardo–Bosa, Paletti secured a valuable 12th place at the end of an intense and selective stage, a result that allows him to wear the white jersey as leader of the young riders’ classification.

He finished within the lead group at the line, which also included teammates Luca Covili and Alex Tolio, both key figures in the decisive final selection of the race.
