Giro d’Italia 2023 Stage 6: Preview, how to watch, TV and live stream details, route map and profile, when race starts

It’s a Napolitano day at the Giro d’Italia! Stage 6 on Thursday, May 11 sees the riders start and finish in Naples as Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) seeks to bounce back from his double crash on Wednesday.
The Belgian favourite appeared to be out of the race after hitting the deck when a dog ran into the peloton, but after spending over a minute on the tarmac he belatedly returned to the saddle. But the drama was not over. As the race wound up for a sprint, he crashed again – crucially inside the final 3km to get the same time as winner Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck).
Soudal-QuickStep doctor Toon Cruyt has said that Evenepoel is in a “lot of pain” and faces a “difficult day” on Thursday.

Evenepoel remains second in the general classification, ahead of his all main rivals for the maglia rosa, with Andreas Leknessund (DSM) keeping the maglia rosa warm – and wet – for now.

Another miserable day is expected around Naples, with the peloton set to skirt around Mount Vesuvius and visit the Amalfi coast.
