The Giro d’Italia is not known as a friendly race for sprinters. In 2019, the course was so difficult that many of the sprinters would fly home halfway through the 21 stage event. Despite the daunting profiles, the Giro featured one of the best sprinting lineups in recent years, and the battle for the maglia ciclamino remained tightly contested all the way to Verona.
