Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) he won the eleventh stage of the Giro d’Italia 107, the 207 km Foiano di Val Fortore-Francavilla al Mare. Second and third place went to Tim Merlier (Soudal Quick-Step) and Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) respectively.
The stage winner Jonathan Milanimmediately after arriving, declared: “The victory doesn’t just come from the 20 seconds of the sprint, but from all the work done by the team in the previous km. The way they helped me makes me happy and I thank them with all my heart. A sprint at the end of a long straight is always more treacherous because you have to find the perfect timing to start. I reacted to Tim Merlier and it went well. It’s special to win with the Ciclamino jersey. Last year, after I won, I was no longer able to repeat myself, it’s important to learn from the mistakes of the past.”
Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) he remains in the Maglia Rosa as leader of the general classification.
