Some more mountains on offer today
Attacks from the start led to a fast pace up the opening climb, and at the top there was a break of 4 clear: Sartasov, Mahoric, Trusov and Taberlay
Theres a crash in the descent - and its Sella!
A few teammates drop back as he finds himself in the 2nd group of riders dropped on the climb
And they quickly and safely lead him back to the peleton, with no sign of injury he should still be competitive come the end of the stage.
So, onto the final climb. The break of 4 lead by just over 4 minutes, and there is 27km to go
And as soon as the peleton reach the climb there are attacks Barredo, Casar, Nibali, Lovkvist, Nocentini
Devolder and Anton also attack but only Nocentini, Casar and Nibali manage to stay away
Now here goes Ricco and Pozzovivvo
They pass Nibali's group and are looking good
Up front the break has split, Taberlay and Sartasov pulling away
Nocentini and Casar are caught by the pack, as are Trusov and Mahoric as Ricco and Pozzovivvo ride towards the 2 leaders with Nibali in pursuit
Pozzovivvo attacks Ricco but the Whiote Bear rider comfortably keeps up with him as they catch the leaders inside 10km to go
And at last more of the favourites make a move. After Barredo, Casar and Lovkvist tried but were unable to get far, Rujano, Anton, Contador and Sella go
And now Cataldo, Marzano, Devolder, Karpets, Ardila as they catch and pass Nibali, Taberlay and Sartasov
Pellizotti makes his move and then finally Cunego!
But inside 5km to go, Ricco and Pozzovivvo still lead by over 90 seconds
There is now an 8 man chase group: Cunego, Marzano, Sella, Rujano, Pellizotti, Karpets, Ardila, Contador
Devolder, Cataldo, Anton and Lovkvist are behind them, just ahead of Nibali
Sella attacks the group, with Cunego following
As Ricco is starting to gap Pozzovivvo!
Cunego has managed to get an ever-so-small gap on Sella which the current King of the Mountains is trying to close, Marzano is surprisingly keeping up
Rujano is next, before Pellizotti leading Contador and Karpets - although Karpets is about to be dropped
Sella gives it his all to catch that small gap to Cunego but the race leader is powering up the climb and he cant do it, instead Sella starts to struggle and is passed by Marzano
Pellizotti is pulling Contador towards Rujano now aswell as Ricco enters the final kilometre, just ahead of Pozzovivvo
Theres nothing the Philips-Hummel rider can do to close the gap as Riccardo Ricco begins to celebrate victory
As they cross the line 11 seconds separate them - time bonuses will push Ricco ahead of Pozzovivvo in GC
But where will the leaders jersey go? Cunego has really pushed hard to the finish and limits his loss on Ricco to 34 seconds.
That 34 becomes 46 with bonuses added in - and Cunego started the day 48 seconds ahead. This means Cunego keeps the Maglia Rosa by just 2 seconds on Ricco - and 8 on Pozzovivvo
Marzano comes through for a great 4th, he will surely improve upon 12th in GC
5th for Sella - he overcame the crash but just didnt have the legs right at the end, he now has a bit of work to do to catch up
Rujano holds off the fastly closing Pellizotti and Contador to take 6th
Karpets and Ardila round out the Top 10
11th for Anton, while Devolder takes 12th ahead of the 5 riders battling for the young riders jersey - Cataldo, Solis, Nibali, Lovkvist and Rodrigues
Danilo di Luca for some reason chose not to follow any attacks and comes in only 20th having sprinted away from the large group he is in along with Iglinski, in the final km. He will drop from 2nd to 11th in GC
