Trying to Get Across G18-46
Recognizing that the race was to be won by whomever was up the road, Alessandro De Marchi (BMC) and Sergio Henao (Sky) went off in hopes of joining those ahead.

Henao is the National Champion of Colombia, but his jersey his hidden under his dark Sky rain jacket. Perhaps the same could be said for De Marchi, at least his team leader had possession of the Maglia Rosa for a couple of stages in the first week of the Giro.
