Highlighting the athletes of the VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizané in the eighth stage of the Giro d’Italia. Martin Marcellusi was the protagonist of the breakaway of the day, winning the intermediate sprint in Leonessa, where he outpaced Jhonatan Narvaez and Michael Storer. The fourteen breakaway riders were caught on the final ascent of Prati di Tivo, where the resilient Domenico Pozzovivo held onto the wheel of the pink jersey group until 2km from the finish, when Tiberi made his move and sparked the battle for victory. Thanks to his thirteenth place, the italian rider jumps to 15th position in the general classification.
