Episode notes

The Giro d’Italia returned to Mount Etna and the climb crowned a first-time stage winner and a new wearer of the maglia rosa.

Join Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie as they recap the fourth stage and the first on Italian soil since the Hungarian grande partenza.

After successfully hunting the stuffed cabbage in Budapest, they are on the hunt for a Sicilian treat of a more therapeutic kind.

On a day that did for the hopes of one superhero, we unpick a day that made the first significant selection of the general classification favourites and find out more about the new pink jersey holder.

There’s an explanation of Alpecin-Fenix’s tactics from one of the riders in the break and the most extraordinary dream sequence since Dallas.
