30.05.2008/Although lVasil Kiryienka's (Tinkoff) won yesterdays stage, everybody was talking about the attack of defending champ Danilo Di Luca (LPR) during todays stage of the Giro d'Italia. Di Luca 's teammate Paolo Savoldelli launched the attack of the Di Luca with 45 kilometres to go. But there was more trouble for overall leader Alberto Contador (Astana). On the final climb, the Monte Pora, Saunier Duval's Riccardo Riccò started a counter attack and Contador was not able to follow the 'Cobra'.  Contador's lead in the overall was reduced to 4 seconds on Riccò and 21 seconds on Di Lucca, who climbed to third place in the overall.
Gilberto Simoni (Diquigiovanni) had a very bad day, the two time winner of the event dropped from third to tenth overall and is now 7:18 behind Contador.

Vasil Kiyienka broke away out of a breakaway group to win the 228 kilometres long 19th stage of this years Giro d'Italia. 145 riders took off in Legnano, one less than had finshed yesterdays 18 th stage: Slipstream's Julian Dean did not start. Only 143 riders finished on the Monte Pora, the 228 kilometres long stage was to much for Mickaël Chérel (Française des Jeux) and ionisio Galparsoro Martínez (Euskaltel - Euskadi).
 
After the sign for the official start was givenAlexander Efimkin (Quick Step), Steven Cummings (Barloworld), Kanstantsin Siutsou (Team High Road), Gabriele Missaglia (Serramenti PVC), Nicki Sørensen (Team CSC), Giairo Ermeti (LPR) and Vasili Kiryienka (Tinkoff Credit Systems) immediately attacked . The first hour flew by with an average speed of 50.4km. The race continued with a fast pace: after three hours, the average speed still was 46 km/h. At the foot of the Vivione the escapees arrived with a lead of almost 20 minutes on the bunch. During the climb, Emanuele Sella (CSF - Navigare) attacked, but the Astana team neutralised his move. On the top of the Vivione Kiyienka passed with with a lead of 16 minutes on the group with the the overall favourites.
 
LPR's Paolo Savoldelli attacked in the descent, with still  45 kilometres to go. It was the preparing move for defending champ and teammate Danilo Di Luca who jumped in Savoldelli's wheel, only Vincenzo Nibali (Liquigas) was able to follow the two LPR riders. A third LPR rider, Giairo Ermeti, was in the breakaway group and waited for his captain to assist by Di Luca's assault. 
 
With 25 kilometres to go, these 4 had a lead of 1:10 on Contador. Contador was supported by Andreas Klöden and Antonio Colom to minimize the damage for the overall leader. Most of the other overall favourites were also in the group with Contador.
 
The leading group was reduced to four riders: Cummings, Sørensen, Kiryienka and A. Efimkin. On the Presolana climb, Kiyienka made his decisive move, while behind him Di Luca dropped Savoldelli (who did most of the work) and Nibali. With 15 kilometres to go Di Luca had a lead on of 1:54 on the group with Contador and the other favourites. Kiryienka was the first rider who passed the summit of the Presolana, while Di Luca passed sixth with 2:10 on Contador and only 8 seconds away from his goal: the 'Maglia Rosa'.  Towards the last climb, the Monte Pora, which was never climbed in the Giro before, Kiryienka was sure of his success, while behind him, splendid riding by Di Luca (Nibali tried to overtake him, but was left behind), and by Contador, who was attacked by Riccò during the final climb.
 
The 26-year old Belarusian from the Tinkoff team, who won the World Championship of the points race (track), thus took his first victory of the current road season and his first win at the Giro d’Italia in his career. Second, 4:36 behind, was Danilo Di Luca. Third, 4:43 behind was Alexander Efimkin, fourth, at  5:25 was Cumming, and fifth, Riccardo Riccò came in fifth at 5:44 . The 'Maglia Rosa'  (Contador) arrived at 6:21 from stage winner Kiryienka. Convador arrived with the other big shots of the general classification.
 
Gilberto Simoni (Diquigiovanni) had a very bad day and arrived with a time-loss of more then 12 minutes on Kiryienka. Paolo Savoldelli finished with the same group as 'Gibo', but the big difference was that 'Il Falco'  had worked very hard to support Di Luca today. Alberto Contador defended his overall lead, but he has only 4 seconds left on Riccò, who is second; Di Luca is now third, 21 seconds behind Contador. Fourth is Marzio Bruseghin (Lampre), 2 minutes behind. Fifth is Franco Pellizotti (Liquigas), at 2:05, and sixth is Denis Menchov (Rabobank), at 2:47. Simoni lost his third position in the overall, he is now tenth, at 7:18.
 
Tomorrow the Giro d'Italia continues with the224 kilometres long 20th, penultimate stage. The mountanin stage will take the riders from Rovetta toTirano. Theriders will have to suffer on very hard climbs like the Gavia Pass, the Coppi peak with a height of 2,168 metres, the terrible Mortirolo (13 km, 10% average gradient) and the Aprica (15 km, average gradient of 3%). On Sunday the Giro will end with an individual time trial.
