Giro 2015 Stage 8: Intxausti wins mountain stage, Contador leader

Hills, mountains and a top-finish Campitello Matese after a irregular 13 kilometres climb, that's today's story. The race explodes on the closing climb with Benat Intxaustii being strongest after a very strong performance by Steven Kruijswijk during the day. Contador takes 2 bonus seconds and retains GC lead.

No flat metre in stage 8 of the Giro d’Italia. Two long climbs interspersed with plenty of hills. Top finish after a 13.6 kilometres toil up to Campitello Matese, but the final klilometre is a false flat down. Escapees or GC men?
