On the final mountain stage of the Giro d'Italia it was a epic showdown with Carapaz, Del Toro and Simon Yates for the Maglia Rosa with Chris Harper winning the stage on the day.

Isaac del Toro managed to defend jersey from Carapaz and Nicolas Prudhomme took his first win in a grandtour from the breakaway while Pelizzari crashed in the final corner.

On the day of the softer side of the Mortirolo the breakaway were caught before the final climb and Isaac del Toro became the stage winner for the first time in his career and defended his jersey after a flurry of attacks of Richard Carapaz.

Del Toro and Ayuso dropped a lot of time on the day that Roglic abandoned the Giro d'Italia with Astana getting a 1-2 on the stage.

Carlos Verona emerged victorious to win his first grandtour stage win and behind it was Primoz Roglic in big problems after Carapaz and Bernal had put some pressure on everyone on the Monte Grappa. Isaac del Toro remains in the Maglia Rosa.

Isaac Del Toro survives another day in the Maglia Rosa and gained more time to some of his rival after a crash that hit Lidl Trek mostly with Giulio Ciccone and some of his other team mates hitting the deck. Kasper Asgreen battled from the breakaway to a stage win the second one for EF Pro Cycling.

The second time trial produced a surprise winner of Daan Hoole the dutch national time trial champion from Lidl Trek who beat Josh Tarling by 7 seconds in a very changing time trial with bad weather and changing winds.

Primoz Roglic was the best of the GC riders and moved into 5th overall.

On the Strade Bianche style stage of the Giro it was Wout van Aert who managed to mastermind a victory with Isaac del Toro finishing second and sealing the Maglia Rosa while the other gc rivals had problems on the gravel with Pidcock and Roglic having a small crash that had a big influence.
