Cantina Tollo's Danilo Di Luca achieved one of his goals in this year's Giro by winning a stage, making up for his failed attempt yesterday. Di Luca rode a tactically superb race in today's uphill finish to Montevergine , with his teammates Gentili, Simeoni, Yakovlev and Colombo setting a fierce tempo over the final few kilometres of the climb, ensuring that he was in excellent position to outsprint Gilberto Simoni (Lampre) and Stefano Garzelli (Mapei). The leader's Maglia Rosa changed hands from Rik Verbrugghe - a victim of another fall - to Fassa Bortolo's Dario Frigo.

Although there were some small climbs near the beginning of today's 169 kilometre stage, most of the action occurred in the last third as was expected. Rik Verbrugghe fell in the first hour, and although he was able to regain the peloton, it proved to be one time too many as he eventually came in 4'37 behind the winner after exploding on the last climb.

Afterwards he explained his problems: "I had some troubles with pain in my side. That hurt me a lot. And in the last 3 km I had pain in my leg. I felt good for the whole day until the fall. Now it's disillusioning for me, because I know normally I could have followed the first group."

His Lotto team were setting the tempo until Fassa Bortolo took over with 30 kilometres to go, on the small climb of Celzi, won by Selle Italia's Fredy Gonzalez. The peloton had split into several groups by this stage, with many of the sprinters disappearing, along with current mountains leader Domenico Gualdi (Mobilvetta).

The pink and blue jerseys of Lampre-Daikin were in evidence at the base of the final 20 kilometre ascent to Montevergine Di Mercogliano (1270m, the last 11.5 km at 4.78%). It was definitely a big gear climb, as Marco Pantani pointed out yesterday, and the rain was coming down quite hard.

Mexican Julio Alberto Perez (Panaria) attacked with 15 km to go, just as Dario Frigo had to stop for a bike change after a fall, and Paolo Savoldelli stopped for similar reasons. It proved disastrous for Savoldelli, who was chasing by himself up the mountain, while Frigo had the whole Fassa Bortolo train tow him back to the leaders. Rik Verbrugghe was in trouble by this stage, and let go of the peloton with 13 kilometres to go, his time in pink finally over.

Perez was looking quite good with a 25 second lead until his chain snapped with 5 kilometres to go. He was passed by Cantina Tollo jerseys on the front of the peloton, who started to pile on the pressure with Di Luca feeling good.

The speed proved to be too much for Marco Pantani, who was shelled with a couple of kilometres to go, and it was a battle between Di Luca, Garzelli and Simoni for the stage honours. Garzelli found himself in front with 500m to go, and he couldn't hold it as Di Luca came round him completely determined to win the stage. He did so, with Simoni picking up second in front of Garzelli and Figueras (Panaria), and moved himself into 13th on classification.

Simoni also benefited, and is now in third overall behind new leader Dario Frigo and Abraham Olano. Despite the loss of Casagrande, Fassa Bortolo are still riding this race to win, and have two dangerous riders in the top four now. The next mountain stage will be quite interesting.
