Decathlon controlled the pace of the bunch right up until the final climb that decided everything. A valiant effort from the break, with Giulio Ciccone lasting the longest, but behind him, Visma and Decathlon smelled blood in the fight for GC.

Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri report from the finish line with all the reaction and analysis. This episode of For The Love Of Cycling is sponsored by Bikmo cycle insurance.
