Giro 2026 Favourites stage 10: Ganna for glory

fotobureau Cor VosThe Giro’s individual time trial is 100% tailored to pure time-trial specialists. The course is 42 kilometres long and features only 50 metres of elevation gain. Bike handling skills are far from a major factor, as there are very few corners. (Slideshow route/profile)

The course is four times as long, but otherwise the route is virtually identical to the ITT that has opened Tirreno–Adriatico over the past five years. Home rider Filippo Ganna is virtually unbeatable there. In those five editions, he has been the fastest four times — often by a clear margin.

Last year’s Giro d’Italia featured two time trials. The first was won by Joshua Tarling, while Daan Hoole took the spoils in the second. Ganna did not compete in his home Grand Tour last year.
