How the Giro d'Italia GC looks after Remco Evenepoel's abandon - Geraint Thomas in pink with two riders within 5 seconds

Geraint Thomas is the new leader of the Giro d'Italia just before the rest stage. On Sunday night we have known the abandon of Remco Evenepoel after testing positive for Covid-19 and the Welshman, who was second overall after his great time trial, is the new maglia rosa.

The race has been turned on it's head suddenly, with the mountain stages expected to be raced quite differently. With Thomas now in the lead INEOS may be taking control more as they hold the race lead. Primoz Roglic is 2 seconds back on Thomas only however. Teammate Tao Geoghegan Hart sits 5 seconds back and João Almeida is 22 seconds back now in fourth place.

TOP 5 OF THE GIRO D'ITALIA AFTER REMCO EVENEPOEL ABANDON:

1. Geraint Thomas

2. Primoz Roglic at 2".

3. Tao Geoghegan Hart at 5".

4. Joao Almeida at 22".

5. Andreas Leknessund at 22".
