Today's stage of the Giro d'Italia Donne had it's main spectacle in the ascents, however one of the most tense moments of the day came in the final descent off the Lago di Cei. Faulkner rode aggressively into a switchback, sliding and then having her real wheel off the ground. A terrifying moment, however one where the American managed to save the situation.
The stage was won by Annemiek van Vleuten who extended her lead in the race. Faulkner finished fourth and climbed to 13th in the GC after her teammate Amanda Spratt abandoned the race with Covid-19 this morning.

UltimateOpportunist23-12-2024 - If you look at the major races they’ve both been in, van der Poel had the early edge as lately Pogacar has had the advantage. It’s all on procyclingstats.RidesHills23-12-2024
- I wouldn’t assume Tadej can’t win at cross. He did a cross race, not a World Cup, a few years ago and crushed the field. It was a minor race. But he can win anywhere.mij23-12-2024
