1979 Tour de France

In the 1979 Tour de France, Parsani was in a breakaway together with Gerrie Knetemann in the 20th stage. At the end of the stage, Knetemann outsprinted Parsani, and Parsani was the second cyclist to cross the finishline. However, Knetemann received a 10-second penalty for being pulled by a car, and so Parsani became the winner of the stage.[2]
