Who's leading the Giro d'Italia 2023 after stage 21?
Primož Roglič seales overall victory in the general classification

Tom Thewlis
Primož Roglič of Jumbo-Visma has won the 2023 Giro d'Italia.
On stage 20's decisive mountain time trial, Roglič stunned Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) to overturn the 26 seconds deficit, and came through the final stage in Rome without any issues to seal seal overall victory.
Geraint Thomas instead had to settle for second-place, while João Almeida (UAE Team Emirates) comfortably secured the final spot on the podium. In doing so, Almeida also wins the best young rider classification.
Roglič wore pink for only one day, but it was the day that mattered. Earlier in the race, Thomas spent five days in pink after taking over the jersey after Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) withdrew, then another four days after giving it away briefly to Bruno Armirail (Groupama-FDJ), but lost it after the montain time trial.
Jonathan Milan (Bahrain-Victorious) sealed victory in the points classification ahead of Derek Gee, despite being unable to add a second sprint win to his total in the final stage in Rome.
Gee also finished second in the mountains classification, which was won by Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ).
