Prodhomme Solos Clear as Del Toro Tightens Grip in Pink
- On Friday, Nicolas Prodhomme secured his first Grand Tour victory by riding solo to win the 19th stage of the Giro d'Italia, completing the challenging 166km mountainous course from Biella to Champoluc ahead of his rivals.
- The stage featured nearly 5,000 meters of climbing over five categorized ascents, including a brutal 16.5km Col Saint-Pantaléon climb that thinned breakaways.
- Prodhomme broke away from a lead group with under 30 kilometers to go and maintained a one-minute lead over Isaac Del Toro and Richard Carapaz, who intensified the GC battle.
- Prodhomme said, "I've waited a long time for a win," noting he previously won at the Tour of the Alps, and expressed strong happiness after his first Grand Tour stage victory.
- Isaac Del Toro extended his overall lead by two seconds over Carapaz and remains the favorite with two stages left, while the Giro winner will likely be decided on Saturday’s penultimate mountain stage.
