Giro d’Italia: Narváez powers to stage four victory with Ciccone in the pink

The first shakeup in this year’s race coincided with its arrival home in Italy following the opening three stages in Bulgaria, and after Aular hit the front ahead of Ciccone, Narváez came from behind and left the Venezuelan behind.
