Giro d'Italia 2023 on TV: Watch live coverage and highlights
Your guide on how to watch the Giro d'Italia 2023 live on TV and details about highlights throughout the event.
The Giro d'Italia boils to a head this weekend with Geraint Thomas in pole position to claim his maiden victory in this event.
The British star heads into the final two stages with a 26-second lead over Primoz Roglic, and sits 59 seconds ahead of Joao Almeida. The rest of the pack is cut adrift by four minutes or more.
Thomas will be determined to avoid incident in the closing stages following a wet and wild Giro so far that has boasted plenty of unpredictability.
Remco Evenepoel led the race after nine stages but was forced to withdraw from the event after testing positive for COVID. Thomas assumed the lead but was involved in a pile-up crash on Stage 11 caused by extremely wet conditions and a slippery descent.
Thomas and Roglic escaped unharmed, but 2020 champion Tao Geoghegan Hart was forced to withdraw from the event through injury.
Fans will be keen to see whether Thomas can fend off Roglic in the dying embers of the Giro, and there are plenty of ways to do exactly that.

Who won the Giro d'Italia 2022?
