Giro d’Italia: family affair inspires Alberto Bettiol to solo triumph in Verbania

Italian cyclist Alberto Bettiol won stage 13 of the Giro d'Italia in Verbania on Friday with a solo attack at the top of the final climb. He caught Norwegian rider Andreas Leknessund at the Ungiasca summit before pulling away on the descent to claim the victory. The win marked Bettiol's first stage triumph in five years, with the rider crediting his familiarity with the local roads in the final 50km.
