Report

Italian Marco Pantani asserted his dominance on the Giro d'Italia for the second year in a row when he took the Maglia Rose after being part of a decisive break on Stage 14 which was won by Paolo Savoldelli. He was very restrained in the Piedmont Mountains but still took the jersey of French rider Laurent Jalabert. But the 26-year old Savoldelli was very aggressive especially on the descent from the Fauniera, a very high pass at 2511m and near to the French border. The route was a former military pass saw Savoldelli attack followed by Spaniard Jose Maria Jimenez, one of the main contenders to Pantani in the mountains.

The first attack came at 1750 metres and split the main group. Jalabert was wise and followed at his own tempo. Jimenez and Ivan Gotti were near to the front group but were not interested in driving the break. Pantani was prudent at first being content to follow without going away himself.

At the summit, 61 kms from the end, Pantania was thirty seconds behind the three leaders (Missaglia, Caucchioli, Pena). At 1 minutes was Gotti and at 2.46 was a group with Jalabert.

Pantani said: "The descent was very dangerous. I preferred to not take any risks." Gotto, was near. Then Savoldelli, who was 2.00 behind Pantani at the summit, rejoined the group on the descent across the Stura Valley. His descent was hair raising. Savoldelli (9th in the Giro last year) then attacked on the last climb with Gabriele Missaglia, eventually dropping him.

Pantani had lost time and was in a small group with Spaniard Daniel Clavero. But on the last climb he accelerated and set about chasing Savoldelli but Gotti would not work with him and there were signs of bad feelings between the two.

At Borgo San Dalmazzo, a town which is located between two alpine valleys, Pantani sprinted into second place at 1.47 behind Savoldelli. Jalabert came in a further 1.41 down after some great defensive riding in the closing kms. Jimenez was gone as was world champion Oscar Camenzind (who lost nearly 4.00).
