Giro d'Italia 2023: Einer Rubio wins chaotic and shortened Stage 13 after thrilling Thibaut Pinot attacks
Emotions ran high in the Swiss ski resort of Crans Montana as Colombia’s Einer Rubio (Movistar) dug deep and kept a low profile on the final climb of a shortened Stage 13 of the Giro before catching out his fellow escapees Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ) and Jefferson Cepeda (EF Education-EasyPost) with a magical turn of pace at the finish. French veteran Pinot and Ecuador’s Cepeda tore strips off each other and bickered incessantly during a thrilling final ascent, trading more blows than 10 rounds between Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed.
