Contador reclaims Giro pink jersey

  • Intro:

    Belarus rider Vasil Kiryienka wins the individual time trial on stage fourteen of the Giro d'Italia as Alberto Contador reclaims the overall leader's pink jersey.

    Script:

    Stage fourteen of the Giro d'Italia - A tough 59.4 kilometre individual time trial from Treviso to Valdobbiadene.

    With rain falling again, it was Vasil Kiryienka who got out early and set a time that would prove to be unbeatable.

    Alberto Contador, who was involved in a crash at the end of stage thirteen, set off aiming to overhaul overall leader Fabio Aru.

    With another of his rivals Richie Porte failing to make much of an impression - Contador smashed the field apart.

    The Spaniard finished the stage in third place and could watch as Aru came home two minutes 47 seconds behind him.

    It means Contador now enjoys a two minutes 28 second overall lead going into Sunday's difficult stage ascenting to the Madonna Di Campiglio ski resort.
