Who is leading the Giro d’Italia 2026?

Paul Magnier won stage one of the Giro d’Italia 2026, meaning he is the first to climb into the pink jersey. The Soudal Quick-Step rider also controls the young rider and points classifications due to his exploits on the opening day.

The general classification essentially reflects the stage result after the opening sprint, although stage one’s breakaway riders, Diego Pablo Sevilla (Polti VisitMalta) and Manuele Tarozzi (Bardiani CSF 7 Saber), both feature due to bonus seconds. Sevilla is also leading the mountains competition.
