00:17to take a circuit featuring a double pass by the Castel del Monte,
00:21the only categorized climb of the day, to repeat twice
00:24before a fast run-in to the finish after a final descent.
00:27The leader's jerseys are the signature podium this morning in Matera
00:31with the pink jersey and the neutralized start in really hot weather conditions.
00:39Sadly, Liam O'Brien of Team Little Track Future Racing had to abandon the race
00:45as his little brother Shane tragically passed away yesterday.
00:49Flag is waved and the official start was given at 1.20.
00:53There were Hilly Moves, XTS Astana, Movistar and the Italian national team
00:59all keen to get out of the road.

01:07with Pombo Tomas in 2nd position and down with Lewandzonski in 3rd position,
01:14Ovenz Parfell in 4th and Donati in 5th position.
01:18The circuit with 88.5km to go with Simone Zanini and the crash,
01:25also one of many today actually,
01:28with two riders of Wisma Lisbaic Devo team involved.
01:33As they pass through the finish line for the first time,
01:35there is a set-down Woody in the break,
01:37as well as Luca Fraticelli, Matteo Gialli, Moritz Maus and Pienerri Basset.
01:43Two laps to go, just under 40k lap with a climb in the middle to repeat twice.
01:48Mirko Bozzola, another good sprinter for Padovani,
01:51choosing to go on the attack together with Leonardo Vesco.
01:56The round of the race on top of the climb of Castel del Monte
02:00for the first time with Marco Martini winning the six points,
02:05Dodd taking the four points and Stjansen two points.

02:26to speak with the race direction car
02:29in the front of the race,
02:31still with three men.
02:39And a small chasing group behind,
02:42around the 24th second.

03:18Roughly 20k to go
03:19and the peloton is coming potentially all back together
03:22before getting to the top of Castel del Monte.
03:25And here is another crash
03:27with Federico Savino involved
03:29of Sordal Quickstep Divo team,
03:32struggling to get his chain back on.
03:37Matthew Dodd of Ineos Grenadiers
03:39goes off without the other two
03:41and takes the six points
03:42on top of the KOM.
03:44The peloton is travelling
03:46at a really high pace
03:48with 20 seconds behind,
03:50roughly,
03:51from the front of the race,
03:52Matthew Dodd.

11:12I sort of knew
11:13that the closer
11:14we
11:14the longer
11:15it went on
11:16the more likely
11:16the break was

11:18so we hit the first
11:20of the categorized climbs
11:21and
11:22I sort of just
11:23saw a moment

11:37about 50 seconds
11:38we were shown
11:39but it was holding
11:41and then
11:42sort of
11:43we came into
11:44this last climb
11:45and I could see
11:45the other two
11:46were suffering
11:49and I was just
11:50like
11:50okay
11:50I just have to
11:51get to the top
11:52as quickly as possible
11:54and then
11:55go from there
11:56because I knew
11:56I was pretty sure
11:58that if I could
11:59get to top
12:01alone
12:01I'd take the
12:02KOM jersey
12:02which is nice
12:03to have
12:03and also
12:04to try and win
12:05the stage

12:14sort of
12:15into that headwind
12:15and yeah
12:16on that road

12:21it's always
12:21going to be tough
12:22but yeah
12:22it's nice to
12:24have the jersey

12:26You have now
12:27the Maglia Azzurra
12:28is this something
12:29you want to
