How to watch and live stream the Giro d'Italia 2022

The 105th Giro d'Italia will begin on Friday 6th May 2022 in Hungary as the hunt for the maglia rosa begins once more.

Last year saw Ineos Grenadiers' Egan Bernal triumph in Milan. He will not be taking to the start line this year however as he's still recovering from his horrific off-season crash. 

This year's first Grand Tour will no doubt bring a plethora of excitement and action with it, featuring star names such as Richard Caparaz, Mathieu van der Poel, João Almeida and Biniam Girmay.

The tifosi will enjoy visits to iconic passes such as the Passo San Pellegrino, Passo Pordoi and Passo Fedaia along the route from Budapest, briefly into Slovenia, and onwards to Verona.

Keep an eye out for riders such as 2017 champion Tom Dumoulin, the peloton's constant presence of Alejandro Valverde, and Vincenzo Nibali on his home town visit to Messina.
