Philippe Gilbert wins Giro stage 12. Alberto Contador can be seen in pink on the left headed for second place.

The Race: It was a wet day in Italy with more than a few riders falling on the slippery roads.

The first hour was ridden at a blisteringly high speed, keeping any breaks from going clear. Finally, after about 70 kilometers into the stage, five riders were able to escape. But, they were kept on a short leash and were rounded up with a third of the stage yet to race. Others tried their luck and finally, in the final kilometers, Franco Pellizotti joined Tanel Kangert in a good-looking stage-win attempt.

BMC was having none of that sort of thing and dragged the pack along to the final climb, intent upon a stage win.

Phillipe Gilbert had the suds today and jumped away from the chasing group. He zoomed by the still fugitive Kangert to come in alone and win the stage.

A few seconds back Alberto Contador displayed his excellent form, being the second rider across the line. He not only bagged the six seconds of bonus time runner-up earned, he left GC second-place Fabio Aru, who finished 26th today, 11 seconds back, increasing his overall lead to 17 seconds.

Philippe Gilbert and a teammate after the stage are rightfully pleased with the day.

Gilbert enjoys his well-earned victory.

Alberto Contador extended his GC lead today. Old guy on the right is UCI boss Brian Cookson. Note the podium girls have to wear coats. They would look gorgeous in anything.
