Mikel Landa wins Giro d'Italia stage 16

The Race: This was the queen stage, the big one, with nary a flat meter to be found.

Race leader Alberto Contador found himself in trouble when he flatted descending from Aprica, 60 kilometers from the finish. This was the first of two times up to Aprica. Immediately both Katusha and Astana began hammering the front, knowing this was a rare opportunity to put Contador out the back door.

Contador's team dragged him back, and by the time they reached the foot of the penultimate climb, the Mortirolo, he was still a minute back. On the Mortirolo Contador first caught and passed second-place Fabio Aru, who wasn't having a good day. By the time he reached top, Contador had caught Mikel Landa and Steven Kruijswijk. That trio disappeared down the road. Meanwhile Aru flatted.

The leading trio blitzed up the second Aprica ascent. First Kruijswijk tried to get away and then Landa dropped the hammer. That was it. Landa soloed to the finish to win his second 2015 Giro stage in a row. Kruijswijk and Contador came in about a half-minute later.

The result? Contador now leads the Giro by more than four minutes and Mikel Landa is sitting in second place, having displaced the struggling Fabio Aru.
