Giro d’Italia cycling star apologises to wife as team-mate carries out brutal punishment
Giro d’Italia star Jacopo Mosca followed through on a brutal bet with team-mate Mads Pedersen which left him with a partly-shaved head. And Mosca’s wife didn’t look particularly pleased when he unveiled his unflattering new hairstyle on a video call, with both he and Pedersen extending their apologies.
Italian rider Mosca upped the stakes before the first stage of the Giro by telling fellow Lidl-Trek rider Pedersen that if he won the first stage, he could shave his head. The sight of Pedersen outsprinting rival Wout van Aert to take victory on Friday will therefore have been bittersweet for the 31-year-old, who knew a drastic haircut was coming his way.
