Remco Evenepoel, who won the stage 9 time trial and recaptured the pink jersey, is out of the Giro d’Italia after testing positive for COVID-19. This comes after an uptick of COVID-19 cases within the peloton, with four other riders leaving the Giro with infections in the first week. Evenepoel's exit will have immediate impacts on the Giro, with the pink jersey unexpectedly up for grabs and Soudal Quick-Step losing its lone captain. The Giro peloton will resume racing Tuesday with the 196km 10th stage.
