Tune in for highlights of every stage of the 2026 Giro d’Italia

The 2026 Giro d’Italia feels gloriously unpredictable: a three-week fever dream beginning on Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast before twisting south through Italy’s brutal Apennines and towering Dolomites. With savage summit finishes at Blockhaus and Piancavallo, plus only one true time trial, the route favors climbers and attackers over robotic control.

Jonas Vingegaard starts as favorite, chasing cycling immortality, but rising Italian star Giulio Pellizzari, Egan Bernal and Thymen Arensman promise chaos.
