Simon Yates rode a stage for the ages when he stormed into the overall lead of the Giro d'Italia on Saturday when the Visma-Lease a Bike rider erased overall leader Isaac Del Toro's lead to take the pink jersey on the penultimate stage of the race.

Isaac Del Toro even managed to increase his advantage slightly as the Mexican rider edged closest challenger Richard Carapaz to claim second place in Stage 19 and precious bonus seconds.

Nicolas Prodhomme claims a brave solo win on stage 19 of the Giro d'Italia before Isaac del Toro extends his lead over Richard Carapaz and Simon Yates.
