Diego Ulissi

Diego Ulissi wins Giro stage 4

The race: The organizer provided this explanation of the day's racing.

The Italian rider Diego Ulissi (Lampre – Merida) won Stage 4 of the 99th Giro d’Italia, Catanzaro – Praia a Mare (200km). Tom Dumoulin (Team Giant – Alpecin) and Steven Kruijswijk (Team Lotto NL – Jumbo) finished second and third.

Thanks to his second place, Tom Dumoulin (Team Giant – Alpecin) is race leader once more, and takes the Maglia Rosa.

Stage winner Diego Ulissi said: “I’m extremely happy. My victory comes after enormous team work. Valerio Conti managed to create the small group and I rode away knowing that, on the final descent, the peloton of chasers would go even faster than me. I gave it everything I had. It’s a huge emotion”.

Seconds after the stage finish, the new race leader Tom Dumoulin said: “It’s great to get the Maglia Rosa back. That’s what we were working for today. We sent Georg Preidler into the last breakaway. It would have been perfect if he had taken the race lead but it wasn’t to be. At the last gasp, I tried for the stage win but Ulissi was just too strong”.

And here's GC leader Tom Dumoulin's Giant-Alpecin team report:

As action resumed after the rest day, the peloton took on 200km of racing from Catanzaro to Praia a Mare with Four riders forming the early break.

In the early part of the race, Etixx Quick Step took up the chase and the gap never exceeded a maximum of 3 minutes. However on the San Pietro climb, the race came to alive with our guys putting on an impressive show of teamwork at the front to decimate the peloton and see some of the sprinters drop including Kittel.

As the reduced bunch headed into the final 20km lots of attacks took place as we had Tom Dumoulin and Georg Preidler at the front on the final climb of the day.

Diego Ulissi (Lampre – Merida) won the stage after a late attack as Tom Dumoulin sprinted to an impressive second place and regained the pink jersey.

In the overall classification now, Tom Dumoulin is in the lead with an advantage of 20" over the second place. It was also a huge performance by Georg Preidler who is now fifth overall.

Tom Dumoulin gave his thoughts after the stage: “We knew that the finale was hard but we weren’t sure if it was too difficult for Kittel. I was feeling good at the start of the stage and we really wanted to regain the pink jersey.

“We made a plan to pull on the 2nd category climb and we were able to drop Kittel. From then on the race was completely uncontrollable but we had four guys in the top 10 so we had several cards to play with.

“On the final climb, Georg was really strong and could follow the late attack. It would have been really nice if he could have taken the stage win and the pink jersey. In the finale, our aim was to play it smart and get in a good position, as there were not a lot of riders left in the bunch. It is fantastic to be back in the pink jersey, which is what we were aiming for at the start of today.

“Once again my main focus for this Giro is the time trials. I didn’t have any specific general classification preparation in terms of an altitude training camp. So I don’t think my level will be good enough to compete in the high mountains in the last week.”

Coach Marc Reef said after the race: “It was a very fast start to the race today with some dangerous riders for the GC in the early break. Therefore, the bunch was always in control and the gap never exceeded the 3.

“The plan before the stage was to race offensively and we decided to open up on the first climb of the day. We needed to do something because we had four guys in the top 10 and there was a big possibility to go for a stage victory or to regain the leader’s jersey.

“On the final climb of the day, Georg was able to follow the first group as Tom remained in the GC group. In the finale, Tom followed his instinct and sprinted to the second place and he managed to retake the pink jersey. The team rode a very impressive race and they executed the plan very well.”

Weather: Catanzaro: Sunny, 21°C. Wind: weak – 15 kmh.
Praia a Mare (approx. 17.15 – Finish): Sunny, 21°C. Wind: weak – 5 kmh.

The Route: The stage is twisting, but the first 120km are relatively straightforward. The route winds its way along wide fast-flow roads, which feature a few tunnels. Past Cetraro Marina, the route takes in the Bonifati climb and dives into the ss. 18 trunk road, then leaves it to tackle the second categorised climb of the day in San Pietro (with high gradients along the first half). The route grows harder after the intermediate sprint in Scalea, with many climbs and descents, and twists and turns that lead into the final 10km.

Stage 4 final kilometers

Final 10 kilometers of stage 4

The final kilometres are rather bumpy. With 10km remaining to the finish, the route takes in the very steep Via del Fortino climb (with ramps topping out at 18%), and then drops into Praia on wide and curving roads that pose no real challenge. Beware of two tunnels in the first part of the descent (the least steep). The home straight is 2,500m long, on a 7.5m wide asphalt road, curving just slightly, 40m before the finish.
