Alan Banaszek, della Mazowsze Serce Polski, conquista il Giro di Thailandia 2022, diciassettesima edizione della corsa valevole per il calendario Asia Tour. Il veloce 24enne di Varsavia, dopo diversi successi da Under 23 e nelle .2, mette così a segno la sua prima vittoria in una .1

Banaszek, che in squadra corre peraltro coi cugini Adrian e Norbert ed è diretto in ammiraglia da zio Dariusz, ha vinto la seconda delle sei tappe precedendo in volata l'olandese Raymond Kreder della nipponica UKYO (a sua volta cugino di Wesley della Cofidis) e ha difeso la leadership fino all'ultima frazione, unica con arrivo in salita.

I due team fin qui citati sono stati quelli che si sono messi in maggior mostra nella corsa thailandese, insieme alla malese Terengganu. La Mazowsze Serce Polski, infatti, prima di esultare con Banaszek nella seconda tappa e condurre la generale fino in fondo, aveva vinto la frazione inaugurale con Marceli Boguslawski. La UKYO non è riuscita a portare Kreder in trionfo, ma ha vinto l'ultima tappa con l'australiano Nathan Earle e ha visto proprio un giapponese, Yuma Koishi, piazzarsi quinto nelle due frazioni conclusive e inserirsi tra il vincitore Banaszek e il compagno Kreder sul podio finale. La Terengganu ha invece messo la firma su terza e quarta tappa grazie agli sprint di Harrif Saleh, che in Malesia è un idolo ciclistico. Nella quinta nonché penultima frazione, infine, è arrivata anche una gioia casalinga con lo spunto vincente del thailandese Nattapol Jumchat.

Questo Giro di Thailandia ha costituito il ritorno alle corse di Danilo Celano, dell'altro team malese Sapura: unico italiano in gara, Celano ha potuto rimettere chilometri nelle gambe dopo un anno ai box, e tra i vari impegni stagionali sarà al Tour de Langkawi a giugno per difendere il titolo del 2020.
