'I didn't crash and I'm still in pink' - Isaac del Toro upbeat despite losing time to GC rivals Tiberi and Roglic
Briefly

Isaac del Toro faced tough conditions during stage 10 of the Giro d'Italia, where rain reduced visibility and posed risks. Despite losing time to teammates and rivals, he celebrated reaching the finish line without accidents and maintaining his lead in the overall standings. The UAE Team Emirates-XRG strategy will be crucial moving forward with Del Toro and Juan Ayuso positioned as co-leaders. Del Toro's determination to defend his pink jersey showcases his commitment to the race amidst significantly challenging conditions.
In truth it could have been a lot worse, as pouring rain on the stage turned into a battle of courage and time trial bike skills for the final riders who raced in the deluge.
I didn't think it was too dangerous but then in the first corner I felt that if I pushed normally, my tyres would slide out. So I went easier and tried to save it on every corner, I only pushed full gas on the straights.
