The Giro d'Italia enters the final week with riders and teams gearing up for a sapping week in the mountains of Italy and an expected leader hoping to maintain his grip on the Tour.

Richard Carapaz, who won the event in 2019, is the overall leader heading into the final rest day but can't afford any slip-ups with Australian Jai Hindley trailing by mere seconds.

Seven riders are within three minutes of Carapaz as the final six stages approach, but none of the British contingent are among the lead pack.

Reigning champion Egan Bernal has missed the event through injury, while 2020 champion Tao Geoghegan Hart is also absent due to illness.

The 21-stage route will push riders and teams to their limits across a range of terrain designed to stretch superstars in every area of their skill-set and endurance fitness, and you can soak it all up live from your armchair on TV each day.

RadioTimes.com brings you all the dates and times you need to know in the Giro d'Italia 2022 schedule.
