Isaac del Toro became the first Mexican cyclist to take the overall lead of the Giro d’Italia but the 21-year-old was beaten on the line by Wout van Aert in a tough and dusty ninth stage on Sunday that shook up the general classification.

Wout Van Aert (Visma-Lease a Bike) roared to a magnificent win on stage nine of the 2025 Giro d'Italia, beating Isaac Del Toro (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) in a two-up sprint into the Piazza del Campo in Siena after a breathless stage which saw Primož Roglič crash and lose time.

Wout van Aert banishes early-season disappointment with a thrilling victory on stage nine of the Giro d'Italia as several favourites lose time on Tuscany's gravel roads.
