horrible is as horrible does
Winner of stage 5 of the Giro d’Italia, John Degenkolb collapses at the finish line after an uphill drag to the line. Most of the peloton, including race leader Luca Paolini (Katusha) and favourite Bradley Wiggins (Team Sky), were held up by several crashes on a dangerous left-hand corner inside the final 1.5km. Degenkolb had to work hard to catch the remaining rider out front after the crash, but he succeeded in the last few hundred meters and took the win for his team.
