Giro d'Italia 2025 GC Update | Chaos on stage 14 sees Simon Yates up to 2nd as Ayuso, Roglic, Bernal & Tiberi all lose time on Del Toro
Cycling
After a chaotic final 20km or so of stage 14, the 2025 Giro d'Italia has once again been turned on its head. Pencilled as a routine sprint stage, a major crash in the peloton held up a number of general classification hopefuls, seeing the likes of Juan Ayuso, Primoz Roglic, Egan Bernal and Antonio Tiberi all lose big amounts of time on the Maglia Rosa.
As has been the case throughout this Giro d'Italia to date, Isaac del Toro was right where he needed to be when the crash happened, escaping any of the effects. Similarly, Simon Yates also managed to avoid any drama and as a result, the Brit has risen to 2nd overall, 1:20 down on the Mexican race leader. Ayuso then follows, still on the podium but now 1:26 back on his teammate.
Richard Carapaz rises two places to 4th at 2:07, before Primoz Roglic, still in 5th on GC, but now significantly further back from the Maglia Rosa at 2:23. Derek Gee and Damiano Caruso were both big winners of the day, rising four places to 6th and 7th respectively, with Antonio Tiberi dropping from 3rd at the start of the day to 8th. Completing the top-10, INEOS Grenadiers duo Egan Bernal and Thymen Arensman, with Tom Pidcock now right on the cusp upper GC.

Rafionain-Glas08-11-2026 - i did not see it. was the relegation justified or an overly hard decision? and don‘t cross riders deviate from straight lines all the time? bumping into each others when they cut corners, etc … why being more strict with the rules on the finish sprint?Ketterechts08-11-2026

Front24208-11-2026 - On a positive note, you maybe notice turning this topic into a discussion has the benefit of eliminating certain participants who do not see how they can turn it back to their sole interest ;-)Jumpyjohn08-11-2026
- People see what they want to. I am actually the opposite of your accusation, probably more of a rebel than most of you who don’t get the big picture. The difference is, I don’t go moaning publicly about the consequences of my transgressions, I understand the need for rules and I take my OWN responsibility when deciding to ignore or break them or doing so involuntarily. I will also not hesitate to state my case or argue vehemently when relevant, sometimes it works, sometimes it makes things worse but that’s the price to pay for principles and having character.Jumpyjohn08-11-2026
- That may be but that was unknown to others and nothing says that’s the whole truth. Again, don’t try to misinterpret, it is a call and technically it is correct. Besides, even if there is a valid reason, that does not disqualify the ruling or punishment as far as the rules have been developed. I don’t think they’re as far as in football where for handball there is a distinction (in some ways and specific cases) between intentional or not. And football can be just as harsh and people live with it, eg the offside rule, also judged to within tiny fractions but often wrong or ignored. It’s the nature of every collective organisation and sometimes I wonder if our rebellion against it isn’t seated in the feelings we carry from the injustices we’ve felt personally, like being flashed driving 1km/h too fast when we are explained limits are just a security measure but we are absolutely certain not to have endangered anyone with our transgression. The problem is, nobody has better solutions and no 2 people have the same interpretation of where a limit should be.Jumpyjohn08-11-2026
- Because for you deviated implies the other rider MUST have been made to fall and fail to finish ??? I don’t know if you ride a bike but next time someone carves you up or drives dangerously close, just hold back from those feelings of changing something, reporting or filming or even complaining. Everyone will just say, hey you’re still here undamaged, doesn’t seem like anyone did anything.Jumpyjohn08-11-2026
