Winning bis for the French, Ewan beaten at the photo finish
Arnaud Demare (Groupama Fdj) today won the sixth stage of the Giro d'Italia, the 192 km long Palmi-Scalea.
A fraction without altitude difficulties enlivened by the long solitary escape of Diego Rosa (Eolo Kometa), attacking for over 140 km. The Piedmontese rider, after reaching an advantage of more than 4 minutes, was restarted at -20 from the arrival with the sprinter teams already working for their leaders.
And after 5 hours of racing comes the adrenaline rush of the sprint: Demare overtakes Caleb Ewan in the photo finish and wins the second consecutive stage success. Third Mark Cavendish.
