Ciao ragazzi! Welcome to live coverage of Il Lombardia - coming courtesy of the 2019 Giro d'Italia around five months earlier than scheduled... You'd be forgiven thinking that, given the parcours of today's 232km Stage 15 from Ivrea to Como, which takes in some of the iconic climbs used during the fifth Monument of the season.

Primoz Roglic will lose around 40 seconds today after that crash so Richard Carapaz (Movistar) extends his lead in the pink jersey standings. What a finale!
0km
Veteran Cataldo had too much in the tank for Mattia Cattaneo, who has to settle for second place. Behind it's Simon Yates (Mitchelton-Scott) who takes third place ahead of Carthy, Carapaz and Nibali.
0km
Victory for Dario Cataldo of Astana!
1km
The two leaders go under the flamme rouge. They can see the others behind them...
1.5km
Nibali is about to be caught by the three chasers - Yates, Carapaz and CArthy.
2km
Nibali is within 30 seconds of the leaders...
2.5km
The two leaders have completed the descent and have 45 seconds on Nibali. They should hold on unless they start messing around...
3km
Yates has caught Carthy and Carapaz. Roglic is apparently 30 seconds down.
4km
Roglic is back on his bike after that scare, which left him hugging the barrier.
4.5km
OH! CRASH! ROGLIC IS DOWN! The Slovenian comes off his bike and almost goes over the barriers on a tight corner...
5km
Carapaz and Carthy starting to lose touch with Nibali...
6km
Nibali is pushing it on the descent, Yates still stuck in the middle. Everyone is taking big risks and it will be a surprise if no one crashes...
7km
Carapaz is really seizing the moment - he wants to extend his lead here and perhaps take a third stage win. It was Cataldo who took the points over the summit ahead of Cattaneo - can they hold on? The gap is 55 seconds.
8km
Roglic rides with Landa and Lopez about 10 seconds down. Yates is in between. Carthy is just caught ahead of the summit.
8.8km
Nibali and Carapaz are about to catch Carthy. The leaders have just one minute now.
9km
Just 1'15" for the two leaders now so if they're not caught going up then they could well be by Nibali going down...
9.2km
Nibali sees Landa coming back and Roglic struggling so he puts in another attack to drop Yates. Carapaz is still with him.
9.5km
Landa trying to bridge across here. Nibali and Carapaz have caught Yates.
