Ben Healy (EF Education EasyPost) won stage eight of the Giro d'Italia 2023 thanks to a long range attack on a climb that suited a man who'd excelled in the hilly Classics just a few weeks ago.
With around 50km left to the finish, Healy left his breakaway companions behind and rode strongly to gain a gap. The Irish rider was further aided by the discord in the group, which meant the chase was never particularly coordinated.
