Jai Hindley was right: he hadn't come to the Giro «to put socks on centipedes» after all. Hindley uttered that deliciously Australian expression after slashing Richard Carapaz's lead to three seconds in Aprica at the start of the third week — the same three seconds by which he trailed his rival for pink going into Saturday's final day in the mountains.
Robbie McEwen believes that Jai Hindley will not take his eye off the ball at tomorrow’s final Giro d’Italia stage after suffering heartbreak two years ago. Hindley went into the final stage of the 2020 edition level with Ineos Grenadiers’ Tao Geoghan Hart but it was the Briton who emerged victorious following the decisive time trial finale.
MARMOLADA, Italy: Jai Hindley is on the brink of his first Giro d'Italia title after stealing the pink jersey on the 20th and final mountainous stage, a 167km ride from Belluno to Marmolada, on Saturday (May 28), as local rider Alessandro Covi took the stage win.

GIRO DE ITALIA | ETAPA 20
Jai Hindley (Bora–Hansgrohe) has snatched the maglia rosa from Richard Carapaz (Ineos Grenadiers) after a dramatic finish to stage 20 of the Giro d'Italia. Alessandro Covi (UAE Team Emirates) took the stage victory to put some smiles on Italian faces in the final mountain stage of this year's race but the day belonged to Hindley.
Paradojas del destino, el pero en apenas 4 km de la última ascensión de esta ronda italiana, todo quedó resuelto. Aunque tuvimos de todo menos batalla épica, hasta tal punto que no se cumplió ni la previsión meteorológica que anunciaba frío y lluvia en las inmediaciones de la Marmolada, Jai Hindley sentenció la Corsa Rosa con un ataque en el lugar adecuado y en el momento justo, lo que unido al hundimiento más absoluto de Richard Carapaz y Mikel Landa, le dará su primera general en una gran vuelta. Curiosamente, se enfunda la maglia rosa en la jornada 20, igual que en 2020 cuando acabó perdiendo la carrera en la crono final ante Tao Geoghegan. El triunfo de etapa fue para Alessandro Covi, que sí dignificó la carrera con una sensacional cabalgada de 53 km en solitario que le dio su primer triunfo en una ronda de tres semanas.
