Kasper Asgreen grabbed a stage victory, and Isaac del Toro increased his overall lead on Saturday after several leading rivals were slowed by a crash as rain ruined Primoz Roglic's parade on the day out in Slovenia for the Giro d'Italia 2025.

A largely flat 195-kilometer run from Treviso in Italy to Nova Gorica was set up for another mass finish, but the rain-slicked roads provoked a mass pileup that split the peloton and toppled the hopes of several favorites, including local hero Roglic.

Mexican Del Toro, who had been looking over his shoulder at UAE teammate Juan Ayuso, increased his lead to 1 minute, 20 seconds, as Simon Yates jumped to second overall.

Agreen was one of the fallers but bounced up and set off on the right side of the split with less than 20 kilometers to go after riders piled up on a cobbled corner entering the final loop round Nova Gorica for the first time.

"That's not how you want to take time off the others," Asgreen said. "But that doesn't change anything for me."

Giulio Ciccone, who started the day in seventh overall, hurt his knee and took a long time to get moving again. By the end, he had lost 15 minutes.

Antonio Tiberi, in third overall before the crash, was slow to remount and, with three waiting teammates, time-trialed desperately after the pack to finish two minutes behind Asgreen.

The Dane was part of breakaway that was nursing a 28-second lead until the crash split the peloton and ended the chase.

Of the leaders in the overall standings Mexican del Toro, Englishman Yates, Canadian Derek Gee and Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz were in the leading group.

As the group passed the same spot on the next circuit, Del Toro lost control of his back wheel and only stayed upright after an alarming slide round the corner.

Asgreen, the loan survivor of the original breakaway, finished 16 seconds ahead of his closest pursuers.

"It's frustrating to have to completely destroy yourself like that to win a race, but when it works, it's absolutely worth it, so I'm incredibly happy," he said at the finish.

Kaden Groves edged fellow sprinter Olav Kooij in a battle for podium places and points, with Del Toro and Yates rolling over in their slipstreams.

Roglic, who started the day in fifth, and Ayuso, who had been second, were 1 minute, 4 seconds behind Asgreen. Ayuso dropped to third, 1minute, 26 seconds behind his teammate. Roglic stayed fifth, but he trails by 2 minutes, 23 seconds.

Tiberi lost two minutes, and Ciccone finished 15 minutes down. Agreen's EF Education teammate Carapaz jumped to fourth overall.

"The rain makes it harder for the bunch," Asgreen said. "The final circuit was quite technical, and with wet roads, it was even harder."

On Sunday, the race heads into the Alps for a 219-kilometer stage from Fiume Veneto that includes the first-category climb up Monte Grappa, but after falling on Saturday, several leading contenders have an unexpected mountain to climb in the standings.
