Australian sprinter Caleb Ewan clocked up his second stage win in this year’s Giro d’Italia on Wednesday, with the Lotto Soudal rider proving fastest at the end of stage 11 to Novi Ligure. He beat Tuesday’s winner Arnaud Demare (Groupama-FDJ), Pascal Ackermann (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Elia Viviani (Deceuninck-QuickStep) to the line, timing things perfectly into the headwind at the finish. “A longer stage today suited me a bit better than yesterday with the other sprinters having sore legs,” he said. Valerio Conti (UAE Team Emirates) continues to lead his closest rival Primoz Roglic (Team Jumbo-Visma) by one minute 50 seconds. Dunbar is 49th overall and 11th in the best young rider standings, with Dunne 151st.
