Giro d'Italia Stage 11 – Route map, how to watch as Cavendish seeks 17th win

May 18, 2022
After Biniam Girmay’s historic victory on Tuesday, another chance for the fast men arrives on Stage 11. Only this time, Mark Cavendish (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) and Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) will expect to feature.

The flat-track bullies were cruelly distanced by their more versatile, but slower, rivals during the early hills on Stage 10, but there should be no repeat on the pan-flat run from Santarcangelo di Romagna to Reggio Emilia.

Cavendish is chasing his second win at this year’s Giro, and his 17th in total, while Ewan is yet to get off the mark in Italy after a frustrating start.

Opinion: Van der Poel’s magnificent gesture enhances significance of Girmay’s historic win

The pair were pipped by Arnaud Demare (Groupama-FDJ) in their last sprint opportunity on Stage 6, with the Frenchman currently leading the race for the maglia ciclamino.

Juan Pedro Lopez (Trek-Segafredo) will again start the day in pink and should have an easy day.

Giro d'Italia 2022 Stage 9 – Route map, how to watch 'stuff nightmares are made of'

May 15, 2022

The GC favourites have been suspiciously quiet during the opening week of the Giro d’Italia. That changes today.

A double ascent of the fearsome Blockhaus, including the tougher side of the climb on the grind to the finish, will inject some much-needed spice into the battle for pink on the race’s first five-star stage. And with a rest day to follow on Monday, there is no reason for the race not to explode into life.

Maxing out at 14%, with an average gradient of over 8% from top to bottom, the Blockhaus will leave riders wanting to “to strap a rocket onto their bums”. According to Eurosport cycling expert Adam Blythe, anyway.

“That is the stuff nightmares are made of when you’re a non-climber,” continues Robbie McEwen, with no time for rest on Sunday as the race immediately goes uphill from the start in Isernia.

Blythe adds: “It’s one of the hardest climbs of the Giro and I expect that the general classification battle will finally begin!”

We can’t wait…
