Former Giro d'Italia winner Jai Hindley (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) has abandoned the Giro d'Italia after being involved in a crash on stage 6 that caused the race to be neutralised.

The neutralisation was called at 71km from the finish in Napoli following a mass crash in the peloton, with Hindley among the first to fall. Scores of riders hit the deck on the wet roads of a downhill run through the town of Sperone, coming off the third-category climb of Monteforte Irpino.
