The XDS-Astana rider from Brescia was sanctioned after the second stage: if he received another card during the Giro he would be expelled
Christian Scaroni gets a yellow card for celebrating the sprint success of his Uruguayan teammate Guillermo Thomas Silva in the second stage of the Giro d’Italia, in Veliko Tarnovo. In fact, as stated in the jury’s report, the 28-year-old from Brescia was sanctioned pursuant to article 2.12.007-5.2 for having celebrated in the middle of the group in the final sprint, a behavior deemed dangerous. The yellow card in cycling is something different from the warning and for the regulation that came into force at the beginning of 2025: if two are accumulated in the same race, expulsion from the race and seven days of suspension will be triggered.
