Summary
After a horrid start to this Giro, UAE reminded the peloton they're still here. A day of tried and failed attacks, and savage gradients between on the way into Fermo, and in the end, one man went alone to take the stage. A valiant effort from Leknessund fell short, which meant Jhonatan Narvaez was able to take his second win of this Giro. Behind them, the GC battle raged on, with the man in pink holding firm and losing nothing on a day that could have reshaped the standings. Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri report from the finish line with all the reaction and analysis. 🚴 If you're watching on YouTube, hit the subscribe button for daily Giro d'Italia 2026 coverage This episode of For The Love Of Cycling is sponsored by Bikmo cycle insurance.
