Giro d'Italia: Blue jersey is a consolation, says Visconti

Three days after Beñat Intxausti was forced to hand over his mountains jersey to Steven Kruijswijk (LottoNL-Jumbo), Giovanni Visconti ensured that it returned to the Movistar team with his attack on stage 19 of the Giro d'Italia. Visconti had been hoping for the stage victory but he was thwarted by a chase from Astana. However, he found some consolation in the blue jersey.
