Stetina impresses on the Zoncolan

Like everyone in the race, he suffered during Sunday's marathon mountain stage in the Dolomites but revealed he has not had to overcome a dreaded 'bad day' on the bike in the first two weeks of the Giro d'Italia.

In the final week of the Giro, he is ready to help team leader Christophe Le Mevel, but will also look for a chance to leave his own mark on the Italian Grand Tour.
