Summary

Michele Bartoli had a small lead on the top of the Poggio, before being joined by a small group with Johan Museeuw, Andrea Ferrigato and Marco Pantani. Rolf Sørensen led the pursuers, who rejoined the grupetto on the descent. A group of 40 decided the race in a sprint, for the first time in 17 years. Alberto Elli led the sprint from afar, but was overtaken by German sprint star Erik Zabel. Several riders were involved in a spectacular final-sprint crash, including Laurent Jalabert, Johan Museeuw and Maximilian Sciandri. Zabel was the second German winner of the Primavera after Rudi Altig in 1968.[2]

gollark: Browser extensions are generally autoupdated, so they probably *could* release a malicious version which steals them and get a bunch before anyone notices.
gollark: I would be surprised if it could actually run an entirely different language to the one it's designed for. Technically you could maybe run a Python interpreter written in JS, but that would be difficult and hilariously inefficient.

gollark: They can still stick there to dissuade people even if they aren't actually binding.
