Johansson, 30, a member of the women&rsquo;s team of the Australian team Orica GreenEDGE (whose European base is in Varese Province), took the lead at the end of an <b>exciting race on a sunny spring day<\/b>, by way of &ldquo;compensation&rdquo; for 2013, when bad weather had been in command.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size:12.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">On the finishing line in Via Valcuvia, <b>Johansson beat<\/b> some of the other favourites<b> in a short sprint<\/b>; on the podium, there were the Briton <b>Elisabeth Armitstead <\/b>(Boels) and the Belarusian <b>Alena Amialiusik<\/b> (Astana-Be Pink).

The 2014 Binda Trophy was decided when, with the finishing line in sight, the group of eight broke away <b>on the last passage through Orino<\/b>, at the top of the slope that the athletes had to go over several times.
