The stage was calmer than the previous ones, with the Spanish team in control to prevent the escape of the first riders, although so far Van Vleuten has shown that he is at a higher level than the others and also means that there is no good attempt to be alone.

Both will try to maintain those positions in the final stage of the Giro d’Italia, which will be held between Sassari and Olvia, with 126.8 kilometers, and where Van Vleuten is expected to take his fourth pink jersey.
