Stefano Garzelli flew up and down the Trivigno, but blew a gasket on Passo del Mortirolo and abandoned. but later got back on his bike to finish 40th (+ 23:08).
Cadel Evans really struggled (cracked?) on the Mortirolo. He was about 7th over the top, 2+ minutes back of the lead group <table style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" width="1000" align="center"><tr><td align="right">permanent link</td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" style="" valign="top">After most of the lead was lost on the descent due to Ivan Basso's poor descending skills, the lead group with Basso on the front most of the time, again stretched the lead out on the long uphill slog to the finish in Aprica</td><td align="right">permalink2("#290-PIC114899266.jpg");permanent link</td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" style="" valign="top">Vino, Arroyo, John Gadret, Carlos Sastre and Cadel Evans joined up at the base of the Mortirolo descent to form the chase</td><td align="right">permalink2("#295-PIC114900513.jpg");permanent link</td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" style="" valign="top">Michele Scarponi did his share on the last climb and also benefited from the Liquigas work to take the win.

Génial ces photos... Garzelli c'est un grand coureur qui a tenté malheureusement il a eu du mal... Sympa le geste de Sastre pour Arroyo à l'arrivée... Sinon j'imagine que Evans doit être déçu de n'avoir rien repris à Arroyo hier...
