Thymen Arensman and Egan Bernal held station at the Giro d\u2019Italia following an undulating 17th stage.<\/p>\n
Netcompany INEOS were content to sit and consolidate within the peloton as a breakaway went on to contest stage honours into Andalo.<\/p>\n
The team were alive to danger during the early kilometres and covered a number of moves during the break formation phase.<\/p>\n
The end result sees Arensman remain third overall with four stages to go, while Bernal now sits in 11th place as the GC went largely unchanged on the day.<\/p>\n
With 29 riders up the road, the battle for the stage win went down to the wire on the uphill ramp to the line, with Michael Valgren (EF Education – Easypost) prevailing.<\/p>\n
The action continues on Thursday with a flatter stage, before two back to back major mountain days to fully decide the GC battle before the finale on Sunday in Rome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thymen Arensman and Egan Bernal held station at the Giro d\u2019Italia following an undulating 17th stage.
