Giro d'Italia 2025 LIVE: Stage 11 updates, route and results as race returns to mountains
The 2025 Giro d'Italia heads back into the hills with a tough outing in the Apennines, which could yet see a further shakeup of the general classification. It's officially classed as a 'hilly' rather than mountainous stage, but the 186km run from Viareggio to Castelnovo ne' Monti features 3,850m of elevation and gain and a behemoth of a climb in the category one Alpe San Pellegrino, which last featured in the Giro 25 years ago. The stage comes after an intriguing battle on stage 10's time-trial, in which Daan Hoole took a maiden Grand Tour stage victory, denying Josh Tarling a double against the clock after winning stage two's shorter contre-la-montre in Albania. The GC contenders struggled in wet conditions later on but Primoz Roglic, having slipped to 10th on Sunday, made up more than a minute of his time deficit to reignite his bid for a second maglia rosa after victory in 2023. Good morning Hello and welcome to live coverage of stage 11 of the Giro d'Italia! With all the time-trialling out the way after stage 10, today the race heads back into the mountains (technically it's hilly, but there's an Alpe on the parcours today, so that feels a bit of an understatement). We'll have all the build-up and action right here. Flo Clifford21 May 2025 09:30

Australia's Jay Vine thwarted by puncture in Giro d'Italia's 10th stage as Daan Hoole claims time trial
Jay Vine has been left cursing a puncture after a sixth-place finish in the 10th stage of the Giro d'Italia, won by shock victor Daan Hoole of the Netherlands. Vine was one of three Australians to make the top 10 on a day when rain undid the stage win chances of the grand classification big beasts in the 28.6 kilometre time trial from Lucca to Pisa. That allowed allowed Isaac del Toro to cling on to the maglia rosa despite finishing in 37th place. Crucially delayed by having to change to a spare bike, Vine (UAE Team Emirates) came in 37 seconds adrift of Hoole, with Lucas Plapp seven seconds and one place behind and Plapp's Jayco-AlUla teammate Michael Hepburn ninth, six seconds further back. Lidl-Trek's Hoole capitalised on better early conditions to finish in 32.30 minutes, ahead of British duo Josh Tarling (INEOS Grenadiers) and Ethan Hayter (Quickstep). It was the Dutch national time trial champion's first victory in a grand tour. "It's unbelievable. I mean it didn't sink in yet," Hoole said. "I was aiming for this day and I was feeling good all week, but to win, I never thought I would do this. "Of course, the GC guys, they had rain and that changed a lot, but I'm still happy I could beat Tarling in more or less the same conditions." Primoz Roglic (Red Bull Bora Hansgrohe), battling to recover from a crash two days ago and secure his second Giro title, fell again on the stage's recon ride, but recovered to make up more than a minute on his main challengers and move up to fifth. Juan Ayuso (UAE Team Emirates) came 22nd, making up a minute on Del Toro and staying second overall. The best-placed Australians in the GC are Michael Storer (Tudor) at 3 minutes, 14 seconds and Jayco-AlUla's Chris Harper, four seconds further adrift, at 14th and 15th respectively. The 11th stage will see the contest for the pink jersey heat up as the peloton takes on a mountainous 186km route from Viareggio to Castelnovo Ne' Monti. AAP

Daan Hoole snatches Giro stage win, Isaac del Toro stays in overall lead
Dutchman Daan Hoole was the surprise winner of the stage 10 time trial on a rain-affected day in the Giro d'Italia. The Lidl-Trek rider capitalised on better early conditions to set an unbeatable time over the 28.6km course from Lucca to Pisa, finishing in 32.30 minutes in front of the leaning tower. Hoole's time eclipsed the early leader, Britain's Ethan Hayter, by 10 seconds, but the Quickstep rider held on for a podium place behind compatriot Josh Tarling of INEOS Grenadiers. As the conditions worsened, none of the contenders for the general classification could make an impression, allowing Isaac del Toro to cling on to the maglia rosa despite finishing in 37th place. The biggest beneficiary was Primoz Roglic, battling to recover from a crash two days ago and secure his second Giro title after his win in 2023. Roglic (Red Bull Bora Hansgrohe) fell again on the stage's recon ride but recovered to make up more than a minute on his main challengers and move up to fifth place in the standings. Juan Ayuso (UAE Team Emirates) came in 22nd place, making up a minute on leader Del Toro and staying in second place overall. Ireland's Sam Bennett (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team) crossed the line in 92nd and is 147th overall.

Daan Hoole wins Giro time trial as Ayuso and Roglic close on Del Toro
Dutchman Daan Hoole won stage 10 of the Giro d'Italia as rain hampered the later starters in Tuesday's time trial which ended with Mexico's Isaac del Toro clinging to the overall lead. The 26-year-old Lidl–Trek rider took advantage of dry roads to cover the 28.6km from Lucca to Pisa in 32 minutes 30 seconds for his first Grand Tour stage win, seven seconds faster than Britain's Josh Tarling. By the time the leading riders left the start gate rain was falling, making the corners slippery and reducing speeds. Del Toro (UAE Team Emirates) finished in 36th place on the day, 2:22 slower than Hoole, but avoided any mishaps on the greasy surfaces to stay in the leader's pink jersey. READ MORE His general classification lead over Juan Ayuso was cut to 25 seconds, though, as his Spanish team-mate put in a strong showing to finish 22nd in the time trial. Overall favourite Primoz Roglic, bidding to claw back time lost in a nasty crash on Sunday, finished 1:15 down on Hoole's time but made up 19 seconds on Ayuso in the GC battle as he finished in a solid 17th place. The Red Bull Bora Hansgrohe rider climbed to fifth overall, 1:18 behind Del Toro. Slovenian Roglic had crashed in a pre-stage inspection of the course on Tuesday, but after his problems at the weekend, he is very much back in the hunt at the top of the leaderboard. Wednesday's 11th stage will see the battle for the maglia rosa heat up as the peloton faces a mountainous 186km route from Viareggio to Castelnovo Ne' Monti. Italy's Antonio Tiberi (Bahrain Victorious) will start that stage 1:01 behind Del Toro with Britain's Simon Yates (Team Visma/Lease Bike) well-placed at 1:03.
