Simon Yates finished the stage to Zoncolan "completely empty", disappointed not to have caught Chris Froome to win the stage, but satisfied to have gained another 31 precious seconds on Tom Dumoulin, now his closest rival for the overall victory at the Giro d'Italia.
Chris Froome dug deep, suffered perhaps like few times before in his career, and fought all the way to the finish line to conquer the Monte Zoncolan and begin a fight back after losing chunks of time in the Giro d'Italia since his crash in Jerusalem.
Tom Dumoulin was in a place beyond words. Monte Zoncolan has that sort of effect. Fifty metres or so past the finish of stage 14 of the Giro d'Italia, the Dutchman was flagged down by a pair of Sunweb soigneurs, and he eased to a halt.
The much feared Monte Zoncolan put an exclamation point at the end of stage 14 of the Giro d'Italia, with Chris Froome (Team Sky) scoring an emphatic victory after two weeks of struggles in the race.
