Pogacar extends Giro lead to nearly 4 minutes after stage 14 time trial won by Ganna
DESENZANO DEL GARDA, Italy (AP) — Tadej Pogacar extended his Giro d’Italia lead to nearly four minutes after the 14th stage on Saturday when he finished second on the individual time trial to Filippo Ganna.
As the Giro prepares to head into the high mountains and the Alps, Pogacar put even more time on his rivals on the 31-kilometer (19-mile) route from Castiglione delle Stiviere to Desenzano del Garda.
The two-time Tour de France champion leads Geraint Thomas by 3 minutes, 41 seconds. Daniel Martinez dropped to third, 3:56 behind Pogacar, who is attempting to win the Giro and the Tour this year.
Pogacar has also won three stages, including the race’s only other time trial when he pipped Ganna on the seventh stage after blowing everyone away on the uphill finish.
Ganna put in another stunning ride on Saturday with an average speed of 53.4 kph to beat the previous best finisher by 1:26.
