  • Ron 

The Maglia Rosa Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) has won Stage 15 of the 2024 Giro d’Italia, the 222 km long Manerba del Garda-Livigno (Mottolino). Pogacar maintained the maxi-breakaway under the control of his UAE Team Emirates to attack his GC rivals 15km before the end. He caught Nairo Quintana, the last escapee, within 2km to go and reached Livigno alone. He extended his advantage to 6’41’’ onto runner up Geraint Thomas before the second rest day and the last week of the 107th Giro d’Italia.

Speaking in the press conference, the stage winner and Maglia Rosa Tadej Pogacar said: “I’ve been here a lot of times. As a first year junior, we had a training camp at St-Moritz with the national team but we came to Livigno with our almost broken van to fill up the tank with cheaper petrol. I came back to Livigno almost every year. I have one of the nicest memories of my live here as well. I can say it: it was my first date with my fiancé Urska. Today is close to the top of the list but still far away from the number one. I’m super happy to win the queen stage here. Every Giro has its own story. Let see what next week brings but I’m satisfied with the time gap I have and the team I have. We’ll make the plan for the last week tomorrow”.
