"I got a good position by my team at the start [of the Turchino Pass, the day's final climb]. There were guys going backwards but it was okay; it's amazing how deep you can go when you can smell the finish...Actually, to be honest, I didn't need to go deeper - I was floating," said Cavendish, whose form is even surprising himself.

Third-placed Alessandro Petacchi of LPR Brakes-Farnese Vini claimed certain riders were not following "the correct code of sprinting ethics" - possibly referring to his run being impeded by certain members of Tyler Farrar's Garmin-Slipstream team (though not naming any names), the American finishing one spot ahead of the dual stage winner from La Spezia.
