The wet gloomy Stage 19 start Morbegno. It was important for the race to start from the original start host so the organization could fulfill its contractual obligations.		share this photo
Shortly after the start and beyond town, Adam Hansen and the race organization negotiate shortening of Stage 19. Mauro Vegni said post-race: "There will be consequences because of the behaviour of the riders."		share this photo
The riders celebrate cutting the route in half from 250 to 125 km. The Maglia Rosa Wilco Kelderman said post-race: “It's nice to be wearing the Maglia Rosa and all the equipment in pink to go with it. I’m happy with the decision to shorten the stage. Today it was a good day to take things a bit easy. What I need to do tomorrow is to follow the other guys from Ineos Grenadiers. They've showed that they’re strong but tomorrow’s stage is not as hard as yesterday’s. It’ll be a big day but I don’t see it as the biggest fight of my career. I’ll give it everything either way.”		share this photo

Your Stage 19 winner, Josef ČERNÝ (CZE/CCC): “History won't remember if today was a short or a long stage. I just won a stage of the Giro d'Italia and it was was fantastic to raise my hands up in the air. It's a nice victory. It makes me feel really happy. I enjoyed my time in the breakaway and it was a bit of a lottery to go for the win. I'm glad I still had good legs today after climbing the Stelvio yesterday. It feels good to get a win at the Giro.”		share this photo
