Jai Hindley and Giulio Pellizzari lived to fight another day at the Giro d’Italia on Wednesday, happy the GC contenders let the breakaway fight for victory so they could recover from the illness that has derailed their GC hopes.
The Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe pair lost time to Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) on the mountain stage to Corno alla Scale and the time trial as they fought illness.
