Davide Bais

Italy’s Davide Bais took a first pro win as the breakaway went the distance in what proved to be a damp squib of a first summit showdown on the Gran Sasso d’Italia. Bais outfoxed fellow escapees Karel Vacek and Simone Petilli on his way to securing the blue jersey. Remco Evenepoel led home the main field three minutes later as Andreas Leknessund survived another day in pink.
