12.11 The one who has shown that he holds up very well when the road goes up is Kaden Groves. Alpecin-Deceuninck who therefore has every intention of trying to make the race, with the Australian being the first pursuer of Jonathan Milan. Groves is probably the No. 1 favorite to succeed on the Naples waterfront.
12.09 If we were to arrive in a sprint, that would now be the list of names. Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) will want to replicate the success achieved in Andora, but for the Italian the unknown is the many ups and downs before the finish line.
12.07 It’s already three out of eight for Tadej Pogacar, plus a second place in the opening stage. Total domination by the Slovenian, who won in almost every way: solo, time trial and in a tight sprint. Yesterday at the end of the stage he said he had the proverbial ‘stuffy nose’, but with the rest day coming up it shouldn’t be a problem for him.
12.04 Today should be a day of rest for the men in the rankings, and the situation is unlikely to change tonight. This is the top 10 from which we start again:
1 POGAČAR Tadej UAE Team Emirates 0:00
2 MARTÍNEZ Daniel Felipe BORA – hansgrohe 2:40
3 THOMAS Geraint INEOS Grenadiers 2:58
4 O’CONNOR Ben Decathlon AG2R The World Team 3:39
5 UIJTDEBROEKS Cian Team Visma | Lease a Bike 4:02
6 TIBERI Antonio Bahrain – Victorious 4:23
7 LUCKY Lorenzo Astana Qazaqstan Team 5:15
8 RUBIO Einer Movistar Team 5:28
9 ARENSMAN Thymen INEOS Grenadiers 5.30
10 HIRT Jan Soudal Quick-Step 5:53
12.03 Immediately important news, Alexey Lutsenko has not left after yesterday’s crisis. Lorenzo Fortunato thus effectively assumes the role of captain of theAstana Qazaqstan Team.
12.02 The caravan now leaves for the transfer section from Avezzano, a race that will remain neutralized for 7900 meters before officially starting the dance.
11.59 The way the ending is designed also lends itself to classic finisseur actions, let’s see if a very active Julian Alaphilippe will be able to find a good day.
11.57 A long stage that comes after two decidedly challenging days, and the big question is: will the breakaway come or will there be some team of a sprinter resistant to tearing who will try to keep the race closed?
11.55 Finally, after having overcome a steep descent, you will enter Naples, where the finish line will be located. The last three kilometers are totally flat, and the finish line is traditionally located in Via Caracciolo.
11.52 At -40, the music will change: in fact the route will begin to present several ups and downs, including the Monte di Procida climb (4.1 km at 3.8%, max. 9%) and the 14% roughness which , from Baia, will lead to Lake Lucrino.
11.50 Today’s section which will cross three regions. It starts from Avezzano, in the province of L’Aquila and, after a long but light descent and a small section, and having passed through Lazio, the route will flatten for about a hundred kilometres.
11.47 Once again the sun is shining on the Corsa Rosa, and the operations on the signature sheet are being completed.

Today’s hamlet that will cross well three regions. We start from Avezzano, in the province of L’Aquila and, after a long but light descent and a small section, and having passed through Lazio, the route will flatten for about a hundred kilometres. At -40, the music will change: in fact the path will begin to present several ups and downsincluding the tearing of Mount of Procida (4.1 km at 3.8%, max. 9%) and the asperity at 14% which, from Baia, will lead to Lake Lucrino. Finally, after passing a steep descent, you will enter Napleswhere the finish line will be located.
As already mentioned, Tadej Pogacar conquered yesterday in Prati di Tivo third victory in his debut in the pink race. The 25-year-old from UAE Emirates had no rivals in the final sprint in the Abruzzo region, bringing his lead in the general classification to 2’40” over Daniel Martinez (BORA-hansgrohe) and 2’58” up Geraint Thomas (INEOS-Grenadiers). Today, the final stage promises to be interesting for the sprinters. Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) will want to replicate the success achieved in Andora, but watch out Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) e Olav Kooij (Team Visma-Lease a Bike), the Friulian’s main rivals in terms of the cyclamen jersey.
