Highlights of every stage of the upcoming Giro d'Italia will be available free-to-air in the UK as part of Eurosport's latest broadcasting deal.
While live coverage will be limited to Eurosport, meaning fans will need a subscription to Eurosport Player or a paid television subscription with Sky or Virgin Media to watch the action, there will also be daily highlights programmes on free-to-air channel Quest, one of Eurosport's sister channels which is available free for all UK viewers.

The daily highlights programme will be broadcast at 10pm each night, with an hour of action from the day's stage presented by former Olympic champion and triple jump world record holder Jonathan Edwards, who will also front the live coverage.
The race gets underway in Sardinia on Friday, May 5, and will run for three weeks, finishing with a 28km time trial to Milan on Sunday, May 28.
