• Team Sky rider adds to his lead on penultimate stage
• Victory in Rome would give him all three Grand Tours
Chris Froome was spat at by a spectator on the penultimate stage of the Giro d’Italia shortly before he all-but-made history by becoming the first Englishman to claim the Maglia Rosa.
True, there is still one more stage remaining. But the 10 laps of 11.5km around Rome on Sunday evening will be largely processional. To Froome, each one will feel like a fresh victory parade.
