Giro 2022 Favourites stage 21: Into the arena

fotobureau Cor VosTime trialists have the final say in a 17.4 kilometres race around Verona. The course features a 4.5 kilometres climb at 4.6% halfway before a finish in the Verona Arena.

From an Italian perspectice, national ITT champion Matteo Sobrero is the hot favourite to win the Verona ITT. On the other hand, Mathieu van der Poel powered to second place in the Budapest ITT on day two, while simon Yates - who pulled out of the Giro - took the win. That course was shorter and finished on a punchy climb.
