January 29 update: Stage 3 starts out hilly, but the second half of the race and the traditional finish in Reggio Calabria are dead flat. Lampre's Daniele Pietropolli will take a 6s lead over Jose Serpa and 9s lead over Daniel Oss into the final day. In 2008, Pietropolli, riding for LPR-Brakes, won the final stage and gained the powder blue leader's jersey from Barloworld's Steve Cummings when it counted most. There will be live text updates for the final stage. — Steve
