The writing has been on the wall for a while. Almost three years since his last major win – the same year he finished runner-up in the 2019 Giro d’Italia – Vincenzo Nibali has been riding on borrowed time for a few seasons now.
Vincenzo Nibali (Astana Qazaqstan) admits this will be his final Giro d’Italia as he revealed his plans to retire at the end of the season. The two-time champion has wowed cycling fans with ambitious and punchy moves throughout his career, which have propelled him to seven stage wins at his home Grand Tour. Ad/> While he has enjoyed immense success in Italy, his crowning achievement came at the 2014 Tour de France when he won the yellow jersey.
Vincenzo Nibali and Tom Dumoulin’s hopes of winning the Giro d’Italia again are already in tatters after the pair cracked on Mount Etna. The duo were two of three former winners in the field, alongside Richard Carapaz (Ineos Grenadiers) who led home the GC favourites on Stage 4. Ad/> Nibali (Astana Qazaqstan) leaked over two minutes on Carapaz – and 4’52” on stage winner Lennard Kamna (Bora-Hansgrohe) – with Dumoulin faring even worse, surrendering over six minutes to the pre-race favourites.
Lennard Kamna won stage four of the Giro d'Italia and Juan Pedro Lopez took over the leader's pink jersey as the breakaway took the honours on Mount Etna. Richard Carapaz led home a group of overall favourites that included Britain's Simon Yates - who recovered from an early spill - a little over two and a half minutes after Kamna sprinted clear of Lopez to win his second career grand tour stage. "I'm so happy to have the stage win in the pocket," Bora-Hansgrohe's Kamna said.
Nunca mejor dicho, la ascensión al volcánico Monte Etna que deberán afrontar los corredores en la será toda una prueba de fuego. Primera llegada en alto de la presente edición, donde los favoritos estarán obligados a dar un paso al frente a lo largo de un puerto de entidad, de los más exigentes que se ascenderán en esta Corsa Rosa.
It was an action packed finale to the opening stage of the Giro d'Italia in Hungary, which ended with a tight battle to the line in the uphill sprint between Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix) and Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert).
BikeExchange-Jayco sports director Matt White says Richard Carapaz scares him the most ahead of the Giro d'Italia. Carapaz won the Giro in 2019 when riding for Movistar. The all-rounder finished third at the Tour de France last year and was the Olympic road race champion at Tokyo 2020.
