For many the 2025 Giro d’Italia really kicks off today, with stage seven’s feast of climbing in the Apennines a likely place for opportunistic GC riders to make a difference.
Stage seven is a 168km run from Castel di Sangro to Tagliacozzo, featuring a category three climb right out of the gate, two category twos in the middle of the day, and a fearsome category one to conclude - including a first summit finish in this year’s race.
