Arnaud Demare hat-trick as Mark Cavendish and breakaway cruelly denied on Stage 13 at Giro d’Italia
A nail-biting finish to the short but eventful 150km Stage 13 from Sanremo to Cuneo saw a four-man break agonisingly swept up in the final kilometre as Frenchman Arnaud Demare (Groupama-FDJ) showed his class and confidence with a third win in this Giro d’Italia. Frenchman Nicolas Prodhomme (Ag2R-Citroen), Dutchmen Julius van den Berg (EF Education-EasyPost) and Pascal Eenkhoorn (Jumbo-Visma), and the Italian Mirco Maestri (Eolo-Kometa) held a maximum lead of over six minutes after the day’s only categorised climb, the Colle di Nava, before the teams of the sprinters combined to crush their dreams after an enthralling game of cat-and-mouse for the last two hours of racing.

‘Last-chance saloon’ at Giro d’Italia for Mark Cavendish and sprinters on Friday’s Stage 13 – Bradley Wiggins
Mark Cavendish (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) is in “last-chance saloon” if he wants to add to his solitary stage victory at this year’s Giro d’Italia, according to Bradley Wiggins.
