Sam Bennett takes third with powerful sprint

Sam Bennett picked up another podium finish in the Giro d’Italia, yesterday, the Irish sprinter taking third as Matej Mohoric won stage 10 from Penne to Gualdo Tadino.

Simon Yates extended his overall lead by three seconds on defending champion Tom Dumoulin by taking bonuses from the intermediate sprint, but saw Mitchelton-Scott team-mate Esteban Chaves lose second place overall and drop out of the top 10 in a blow for his team.

Yates now leads by 41 seconds from Dutchman Dumoulin, with Thibaut Pinot of Groupama-FDJ in third at 46 seconds.
