THE GENERAL RANKING OF THE GIRO D’ITALIA 2024

1.40pm: The group is two minutes and forty seconds late in their escape. It is unlikely that the three will be able to reach the finish line, but the sprinters’ teams must not be distracted.

1.36pm: There was a strong argument between Jonathan Milan and the Norwegian Laengen (UAE Emirates). The reason for the disagreement remains to be understood, perhaps due to some skirmish over the management of the group.

1.31pm: Tim Van Djike passes first on the Pietracatella GPM.

1.26pm: 160 kilometers from the finish line the three fugitives have over two and a half minutes ahead.

1.21pm: At the moment the pace of the group on the Pietracatella climb is very slow. There will hardly be any problems for the sprinters.

1.16pm: Very fun moment in the race for the Italian champion Simone Velasco

1.11pm: Attention, Luke Plapp was in front of the group to shoot. He was supposed to rank for Jayco and instead now he finds himself acting as a wingman. Also pay attention to Alpecin which can increase the pace on the climb.

1.05pm: The Pietracatella climb is approaching (8.4km at 5.4%). It remains to be seen whether some teams will try to make an important pace to try to get away from some sprinters.

1.00pm: The three escapees Edoardo Affini and Tim Van Djike (Team Visma | Lease a Bike) and Thomas Champion (Cofidis) have a two and a half minute lead on the group.

12.57: Small technical problem for Julian Alaphippe, but the situation was resolved for the French rider.

12.54: The group broke into a series of sections.

12.50: Soudal Quick-Step and Lidl-Trek are dividing the task of leading the group.

12.47: The situation in the group

12.44: This escape also dampens the possible concerns of the first part of the stage, with Lidl-Trek managing the pace of the group as best as possible.

12.38: All the jerseys of the Giro d’Italia 2024

12.33: Lidl-Trek is leading the group at a very slow pace and in fact the three escapees have already taken a two-minute lead.

12.30: Advantage of a minute and a half for the three escapees, with the sprinters’ teams managing the situation.

12.26: The moment of the sprint by Affini and Champion

12.22: Not even time to start and the first escape started. Protagonists Edoardo Affini and Tim Van Van Djike (Team Visma | Lease a Bike) and Thomas Champion (Cofidis)

12.20: THE ELEVEN STAGE OF THE GIRO D’ITALIA OFFICIALLY BEGINS!

12.17: A few moments before the start.

12.12: Let’s analyze the altimetry of today’s stage

12.08: THE ELEVEN STAGE BEGINS! The first three and a half kilometers will be neutralized.

12.04: Unfortunately, another withdrawal is also worth noting, that of Stefano Oldani, who was communicated by Cofidis itself

12.02: The moment of the signature sheet for the new white shirt, Antonio Tiberi

11.59: Team Visma’s cursed season continues | Lease a Bike. First the failure of Wout Van Aert to participate in the Giro, then the withdrawals of Christophe Laporte and Olav Kooij, after the latter had also managed to win a stage at the finish line in Naples. Now Uijtebroeks, who was fighting for the podium and the white jersey, has also withdrawn.

11.55: The news of the day is certainly Cian Uijtebroeks’ withdrawal from the Giro d’Italia. In this way the scenarios change significantly in the Corsa Rosa for our Antonio Tiberi who, in addition to becoming the new Maglia Bianca, also enters the Top-5 of the general classification.

11.53: There will be 207 kilometers in this eleventh stage with 1850 meters of altitude difference. The altitude difficulties are practically all concentrated in the first part, with the third category GPM of Pietracatella (8.4 km at 5.4%). Then some ups and downs passing through the flying finish line of Casacalenda. From then on a downhill stretch and a final part of the race that is completely flat.

11.50: Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the live broadcast of the eleventh stage of the Giro d’Italia.

Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the LIVE LIVE of the eleventh stage of the Giro d’Italia 2024. A day probably dedicated to the sprinters, but so far nothing has been taken for granted in this Corsa Rosa and the breakaway could even be successful.

There will be 207 kilometers from Foiano di Val Fortore to Francavilla al Mare. The altitude difficulties are practically all concentrated in the first part, with the third category GPM of Pietracatella (8.4 km at 5.4%). Then some ups and downs passing through the flying finish line of Casacalenda and a completely flat second part and an almost predictable sprint finish in Francavilla al Mare.

Clearly the spotlight in Italy is on Jonathan Milan, who is looking for his second success in this round. The main rivals will be Tim Merlier and Kaden Groves, also because the Dutch Olav Kooij had to abandon the race after catching a virus. Other sprinters such as Max Kanter, Marius Mayrhofer and Ethan Vernon abandoned with him.

OA Sport offers you the LIVE LIVE of the eleventh stage of the Giro d’Italia 2024. Updates starting at 11.50am. Good fun.
