Giro d'Italia - Stage 20

Report

Enrico Zaina (It, Carrera) won the first of two difficult mountain stages, from Marostica to the 2239m summit of the Passa Pordoi by way of the 2047m Passo Manghen, a first ascent of the Pordoi, and the 2057m Passa Fedaia-Marmolada, holding off Ivan Gotti (It, Gewiss Playbus) and Gianni Bugno (It, Mg-Technogym), whose postman's legs have plainly sprouted wings. Further back the race leaders fought for time, with Abraham Olano (Sp, Mapei-GB) taking a bare second to put him on first place overall in the same time as Pavel Tonkov (Rus, Ceramica Panaria-Vinavil).

Claudio Chiappucci (It, Carrera) retired sick on the second climb of the day. Tomorrow's penultimate stage ends with another summit finish on the Aprica (1181m) by way of the Passo della Mendola (1363m),the Passo del Tonale (1883m), the Passo di Gavia-Cima Coppi (2621m) and the Passo del Mortirolo (1852m).
