Rachel Jary goes inside the Lidl-Trek team car on a chaotic breakaway day – she discovered Mads Pedersen's favourite fuel, tried to understand the politics of the peloton and there were moments where she feared she may never make it to the stage finish in Bormio.

She also got an insight on the best gastronomy the Trentino region has to offer from some local riders, found out what makes Richard Carapaz a fan favourite and spoke to Sam Bennett about why the sprinters are absolutely dreading the final mountain stages coming up. Spoiler alert: it isn't much fun in the gruppetto.
