The start of cycling’s Grand Tour season is here.
The Giro d’Italia is the first of the three Grand Tours in 2024 and will see some of the biggest names in the sport doing battle over 21 stages.
Two-time Tour de France winner Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) is the standout favourite on his Giro debut, with Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers), Romain Bardet (dsm-firmenich-PostNL) and Dani Martinez (Bora–Hansgrohe) among the challengers.
Primoz Roglic (Bora–Hansgrohe) will not be back to defend his title as he focuses his efforts on the Tour de France, while Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) and Wout van Aert (Visma-Lease a Bike) are also absent.
The sprinters at the race include Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek), Caleb Ewan (Jayco–AlUla), Fernando Gaviria (Movistar), and Fabio Jakobsen (dsm–firmenich PostNL).
The race starts in Turin on May 4 and finishes in Rome on May 26.
How can I watch the Giro d'Italia on TV and live stream?
Every stage will be broadcast in its entirety on Eurosport 1, while you can watch ad-free on discovery+ and eurosport.co.uk.
The UK coverage will be bookended by The Breakaway, presented by Orla Chennaoui, who has a string of esteemed guests joining her across the three weeks.
