Giro d’Italia 2023: Remco Evenepoel dominates the field to claim stunning time trial win on Stage 1
Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) blitzed the field with a dominant display in the opening stage of Giro d’Italia – a 19.6km time trial from Fossacesia Marina to Ortona.
The 23-year-old stopped the clock at 21:18 in what Rob Hatch on commentary called a “performance for the ages” that bettered the provisional leader Joao Almeida’s time by 29 seconds – Almeida would eventually finish third.
