Race report
Ben Healy initiates the breakaway after roughly 15 kilometes of action. His lead stays slim for a while, but he keeps on pushing until Julian Alaphilippe and Nans Peters bridge across. Axel Zingle, Richard Carapaz, Michal Kwiatkowski, Iván García, Andreas Leknessund and Nikias Arndt make it nine at the front and the gap widens to almost 3 minutes.

The gap falls below 1 minute in the Forchetta climb, but it bounces back to over 2 minutes.

The lead group is down to Carapaz and Leknessund on the climb to Moria. The two enter the finish climb 1.30 minutes ahead of the main group

Carapaz drops Leknessund with 9.7 kilometres left to climb. He is caught by the GC podium, Vingegaard, Ayusuo and Hindley, a little over 3 kilometres later.

The Vingegaard one-man-show opens with 6 kilometres remaining and wins the race half a minute ahead of the other podium contenders.
