Twenty-One-Year-Old From Baja Becomes First Mexican Cyclist To Lead One Of Professional Cycling’s Biggest Races ~ L.A. TACO
- Isaac del Toro, a 21-year-old Mexican cyclist, leads the Giro d'Italia as the race nears its May 2025 conclusion in Rome.
- Del Toro gained the lead during a grueling gravel stage halfway through the race after dropping teammate Juan Ayuso and beating Wout van Aert.
- He has maintained the pink leader's jersey for 10 stages, with a 43-second advantage and faces a decisive, hot mountain stage shortly before the race ends.
- Del Toro’s 43-second lead places him 344 km from becoming Mexico’s first Grand Tour winner, while rival Richard Carapaz anticipates a change, saying, "I think tomorrow will be different."
- The upcoming mountain segment could determine the Giro winner, and although Del Toro is favored, a poor performance there could jeopardize his victory.
