Career[]

Lorenzetto became a professional cyclist in 2004. His first victory came in 2007, when he won a stage in the Tour Méditerranéen, in a close sprint over Daniele Bennati.[3]

The year 2009 started good for Lorenzetto, as in March he already had three victories.[4] In April 2009, during the Tour of Flanders, Lorenzetto crashed and was taken to hospital,[5] but a few days later he could leave the hospital without serious damage.[6]
