Alberto Dainese stuns Mark Cavendish and big names to win Stage 11 sprint at Giro d’Italia 2022
After Domenico Pozzovivo’s successful moonlighting as a leadout man for teammate Biniam Girmay on Tuesday it was Romain Bardet’s turn to play a huge role in a superb victory for his DSM teammate Alberto Dainese in Wednesday’s Stage 11 to Reggio Emilia. Frenchman Bardet piloted Dainese around the final bend ahead of the home straight after Team DSM shook up their tactics and backed the Italian 24-year-old instead of their regular Dutch fast-man Cees Bol in what could be the last mass bunch sprint of the 105th edition of the race.
