The peloton is well into the third and final week of the Giro d'Italia, and Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) is still looking as strong as ever ahead of the final three days of racing: stage 19, stage 20, and stage 21 into Rome.
After the sprint finish on stage 20 in Padova won by Tim Merlier (Soudal-QuickStep), Pogačar leads the overall classification by 7:42 over Daniel Martínez (Bora-Hansgrohe) and 8:04 over Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers). Meanwhile, Ben O'Connor (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) sits just outside the podium positions at 9:47.
