Mads Pedersen took the stage win in Veneto with a monster sprint ahead of Wout van Aert, taking his 4th victory of the race and 5th stage for Lidl-Trek. Isaac del Toro placed 3rd, gapped the rest of his rivals and adding a total of 6 bonus seconds, to strengthen his grip on the Maglia Rosa to 38 seconds to teammate Juan Ayuso, with 3rd on GC Antonio Tiberi at 1:18 down.
"I'm just happy with this one and adding another 50 points to the Ciclamino jersey, so let's see how it goes. It's still far to Rome, but now I'm just overwhelmed about winning again."
-Mads Pedersen
