Filippo Ganna will start in the final wave of riders of Monday’s Tirreno-Adriatico time trial, with Ineos Grenadiers hoping the rain will have eased when the Italian rolls down the start ramp at 3:40 pm local time in Italy.

Rain and 20km crosswinds are forecast for much of Monday on the Tuscan coast, north of Pisa, with the 11.5km time trial going up and down the pan-flat seafront between Lido di Camaiore and Marina di Pietrasanta.
