Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) and Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) finished together in Turin, respectively 38th and 40th, with Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) behind in the mass bunch in 68th place, preferring to avoid sprinting to the line and fighting for placings on stage 3 of the Tour de France.
