Ulissi, in his third success of the season and second in this race, confirms himself as the leader of the general classification and of the points classification, with only one stage still to run (Cagliari-Cagliari of 170.2 km with a double pass on the 2nd category climb of the Coremò peak (5.6 km at 6.4% average gradient).
 
Ulissi: “The stage was tough, also due to the considerable heat. Riabushenko was very good at staying with me on the climb; together we worked well to control the attacks of the opponents and to make a great sprint, and it turned out perfectly.
We are happy, but we are already focused on tomorrow: we will have to control as best we can to bring the race home.”
