Amanda Spratt had until now been one of the protagonists at the Giro d'Italia Donne, but like many over the last few months she has been forced to abandon the race due to Covid-19.
She tested positive this morning and will not take to the start of stage seven. Spratt had raced a consistent event so far and was sitting as Team BikeExchange - Jayco's best option in sixth place in the overall classification. Today Annemiek van Vleuten, currently in pink, will be defending her lead once again as the peloton rides into Aldeno.

My Giro is over 😭😢🥺😩❌. I felt a bit off in the stage yesterday and woke up this morning not feeling well. A test confirmed positive for Covid. So sad and disappointed when my favourite stages were finally here. Heading home and will focus on recovery. Thanks team 😘
