No decision has yet been taken on the possible omission of the Passo dello Stelvio from the route of stage 16 of the Giro d’Italia, despite reports to that effect in the Italian press on Friday morning.

The upper reaches of the 2,758-metre pass remain banked with snow, but Cyclingnews understands that RCS Sport and local authorities will wait until closer to the stage on May 21 before making a final call on the Stelvio’s inclusion.
