Your Stage 9 ITT winner, Primož ROGLIČ (SLO/JUMBO - VISMA) sticks another podium landing		share this photo
“It’s not a surprise for me to win because in a time trial, I just focus on myself. I rode as fast as possible to the top and it went well. Some luck is also needed for winning. I feel sorry for Victor Campenaerts who had a mechanical. As for myself, I recce'd the course on the dry and it was rainy when I raced but I took no risk. Regardless of the time gaps today, many things can still happen until we cross the finish line in Verona.”		share this photo
Primož is primed to take the overall lead again in the mountains next week		share this photo
With a healthy overall lead to start the day, Valerio CONTI (ITA/UAE TEAM EMIRATES) stays in Pink heading into the first rest day: “Maybe I made a mistake with taking the visor off my helmet, I thought the rain was over but, it rained more and more. I possibly have lost about one minute on Primoz Roglic because I didn’t take any risk. I just wanted to retain the Maglia Rosa. I want to hold on to it as long as I can. I might not win the Giro this year but I might try to win it in the future.”		share this photo
