He Tour of Italy celebrates a seventeenth stage that promises to be a great show. The peloton faces a new day of a transalpine round that seems to already have an owner: Tadej Pogacar. The Slovenian runner from the UAE is demonstrating throughout the race an insatiable, voracious hungerand to satisfy her, this Tuesday she won her fifth victory.
Neither his rivals nor the harsh weather conditions, which forced the sixteenth stage to be shortened, could satisfy the leader of the Corsa rosa, who reached the finish line alone counting his five victories one by one with his frozen fingers. A “little hand” from the Slovenian, relentless in his ambition, winning at the top of Mount Lana with his usual authority. In his 75th professional victory, his 19th in a grand round, he clocked a time of 2h.49.37, at an average of 41.9 km/hour.
Today’s stage starts in Selva di Val Gardena and ends at Passo Brocon, forming a 159 km route. Great mountain stage with 5 climbs, Passo Sella (2nd, 9 km at 7.3), Passo Rolle (1st, 19.8 km at 4.6), Passo Gobbera (3rd, 5.7 km at 5.8 ), and a double ascent through the Passo Brocon, the first (2nd, 13.6 km at 6.5) and the second towards the finish (1st, 11.9 km at 6.4).
