Team DSM-Firmenich did their best to make stage 6 of the Giro d’Italia Donne a hard one in their quest to put Juliette Labous on the overall podium, with success as the French rider moved up to third overall in Canelli.
Things looked very promising during the 102.7km stage as her main rival Veronica Ewers (EF Education-TIBCO-SVB) was distanced over the Calosso climb, but Ewers returned on the run-in to the finish, only losing three seconds to Labous on the short finishing climb.
