Giro 2018: Route and stages

Chris Froome won the 2018 Giro d'Italia ahead of Tom Dumoulin and Miguel Ángel López. Three weeks of tough racing took the riders from Israel to Sicily, and from the deep south to the high Alps. The route took in iconic climbs up the Etna, Gran Sasso, Zoncolan, Colle delle Finestre and Jafferau. Those last two mountains proved to be decisive. Froome attacked on the Finestre in stage 19, with 80 kilometres to go, and completed an heroic odyssey with a 3 minutes lead on the Jafferau.
