Gabriele Bosisio (Team LPR) has comfortably won the 7th stage of the Giro d’Italia, from Vasto to Pescocostanzo over a distance of 180 kilometres and the first serious test for the overall favourites.

For the third consecutive day, a long-distance breakaway, in this case an escape of 160 kilometres, has been successful. Twenty-seven year old Bosisio grabbed his second victory in 2008 (Bosisio also win the Giro d’Oro) and the fourth in his career. In second place, 46" behind, was the Belorussian Kiriyenka (Tinkoff) came in second, 46 seconds behind the stage winner, Sella (CSF) completed the podium,  1' 01" behind Bosisio, fourth Cardenas (Barloworld) at 1'32", fifth Di Luca, sixth Riccò at 2'03", seventh Piepoli at 2'06" and eighth Contador at 2'09". Another small pack of big names containing Rebellin, Pellizotti, Kloden, Nibali, Menchov, Simoni, Leipheimer, Valjavec and Savoldelli reached the finish at a distance of 2'55", while Barloworlds Soler crossed the line at 3'30". The 'Maglia Rosa' stays on the shoulders of Giovanni Visconti (Quick Step), who arrived 3'51" behind stage winner Bosisio, gaining several seconds on the German rider Matthias Russ.

Tinkoffs Kiriyenka broke away after 8 kilometres, with Savini and Bosisio on his wheel and behind them Lastras, Cardenas and Sella. Savini and Lastras were eventually caught, while after 55 kilometres Horrach, Baliani and Spilak svarted a counterattack. After 69 kilometres seven riders had taken a clear lead. In the meantime, the sprinter Alberto Loddo (Tinkoff) pulled out. At the Carovili line the bunch (which had split in the early phases of the race when 36 riders pulled way) had a deficit of 7'22". Galdos, Hutarovich and Calcagni likewise withdrew and it was left to Gilberto Simoni's Diquigiovanni and Riccardo Riccò's Saunier Duval to make a push. With 25 kilometres to go Bosisio, Cardenas, Sella, Baliani and Kiriyenka made up the leading bunch, the group with the 'Maglia Rosa' (with about 80 riders) was 5 seconds behind them, and between these two groups was a small pack of riders with riders like Efimkin, Spilak and Garate. Baliani lost ground on the Pietransieri climb (the last but one). Further back Di Luca, Riccò, Piepoli and Contador began to mount the pressure, while race leader Giovanni Visconti, accompanied by Bettini, remained slightly out of touch.

Less than 3.5 kilometres from the summit of the Pietransieri climb, hence with still 17 kilometres to go, the race favourites made their move. Piepoli sprinted away and a kilometre later Di Luca and Riccò followed, with Contador and Joaquin Rodriguez on their wheels. But the Spanish ace soon lost contact and it was left to Di Luca, Riccò and Contador to catch Piepoli. At the Pietransieri King of the Mountains line, these four were 2'3" behind race leaders Bosisio, Sella, Cardenas and Kiriyenka, and had a 25" advantage on the other overall favourites. With 10 kilometres to go, Bosisio, Sella and Cardenas were still in the lead with a 2'32" advantage over Di Luca, Riccò, Piepoli and Contador, 2'50" over the other big names and 3'16" over Visconti. Sella attacked but got a puncture, Kiriyenka fell behind and with 8 kilometres left Bosisio was in front. 3 kilometres later he had a lead of 2'34" over Di Luca’s groupk. Victory was his for the taking and he duly took it.
 
Tomorrow the race proceeds with the 208 kilometres long 8th stage from Rivisondoli to Tivoli. It’s a Tyrrhenian-Adriatic classic-type stage, with a final climb of 2 kilometres (5%-8% gradient). A sprint finish is likely at San Vincenzo on Sunday, after which the riders can enjoy their first restday.
