Tadej Pogacar wears the blue leader jersey today at Stage 5 of the Tirreno-Adriatico. The Slovenian defends his wall-ride lead, the traditional hangman in the Italian stage race. Will he continue his lead over Remco Evenpoel, the number 2? Follow the course on this page.
Remco Evenepoel attack 40 kilometers from the end? Remco was strong, but I think he was very keen on that. He wanted to attack, but I realized we had no chance because of the headwinds and the peloton being chased. Maybe he wasted a lot of his energy there so early in the final.

Day 5 in Tirreno-Adriatico and the classification men have to be on their toes again between Severo and Fermo.
The fifth stage is the traditional “Tappa dei Muri”, which is the Ride of the Walls. The organization drew a maze filled with some calves and more disturbing climbs.
We’ll provide you with a detailed description of the many bumps that await the finalists, but the “bumpy finish” is the least to describe it today.
