Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 17 Preview

Stage 16 of the Giro d'Italia 2025 on Tuesday provided an array of emotions, as wet conditions saw a number of crashes early in the day, while XDS Astana Team teammates Christian Scaroni and Lorenzo Fortunato rode free and stole the spotlight, finishing first and second, respectively.

Along the way, pre-race favorite Primoz Roglic was forced to abandon the race after crashing for the fourth time at the 2025 event, but that wasn't the only ripple in the General Classification. The standings tightened overall, with 21-year-old Isaac del Toro now clinging to a 26-second lead over Simon Yates.

Ahead Wednesday is another mountain stage and more climbing for the remaining riders. Will Del Toro be able to stay in pink after Stage 17? 

Past Giro d'Italia winner Richard Carapaz also is within reach of the pink leader's jersey, sitting 31 seconds behind Del Toro. Canadian Derek Gee is fourth (1 minute, 31 seconds), and Damiano Caruso is fifth (2 minutes, 40 seconds).

Tuesday's Stage 16 also was historic for host country Italy, as all three podium finishers - Scaroni, Fortunato and Guilio Pellizzari - all hail from Italy. Pellizzari finished almost a minute behind the Astana teammates.

For viewers in Canada, FloBikes coverage of Stage 17 will begin at 6:40 a.m. Eastern and is expected to conclude around 11:35 a.m. EDT.

Here’s what to know about Stage 17 of the Giro d’Italia 2025, a 155-kilometer ride from San Michele All'Adige to Bormio, which features an altitude gain of 3,800 meters.

2025 Giro d'Italia


Stage 17: Giro d’Italia 2025 

On paper, this 155-kilometer journey from San Michele All'Adige to Bormio is "easier" than the two prior stages and what's ahead in Stage 19 and Stage 20.

That said, Stage 17 of the Giro d'Italia 2025 is another mountain stage, and it features two long climbs. The Category 1 climb of Passo del Mortirolo reaches a whopping 16%!

For what it's worth to the exhausted riders, the last few kilometers after one last Category 3 climb are mostly downhill. 

The last time a stage of the Giro finished in Bormio was 2017.
