The Giro d'Italia today remembered Belgian cyclist Wouter Weylandt, who died one year ago during the race's third stage. The organiser held a minute's silence in Horsens, Denmark, following Weylandt's favourite song, Sex on Fire.

"For Wouter we are having a party," race director, Michele Acquarone told Cycling Weekly. "We want to remember when he won in Middelburg in the third stage two years ago, not when he died in Rapallo last year."
