Longish day out in the deep recessions of the Mezzogiorno sees a star-studded sprint go to the Australian Michael Matthews, whose Jayco AlUla team kinda crushed it all day in the hopes of this very result. Former world champ Mads Pedersen, a definite points contender, hung on over the climbs but had too far to come from behind Matthews to finish off the stage on a slight rise in Melfi. No changes on GC, where the Bigs rode relatively calmly all day.
Results:
- MATTHEWS Michael, Team Jayco AlUla, 5:01:41
- PEDERSEN Mads, Trek - Segafredo
- GROVES Kaden, Alpecin-Deceuninck
- ALBANESE Vincenzo, EOLO-Kometa
- OLDANI Stefano, Alpecin-Deceuninck6018
