He lost weveral minutes in the second stage, won by Alfredo Binda; Binda became the new leader, with only Jef Demuysere within one minute. The third and the fourth sprint ended in bunch sprints, so Binda easily kept the lead. The fifth stage saw the first categorized mountain climb ever; Binda reached the top first, but after that was left behind by other riders. Guerra won the sprint, and Demuysere finished in fourth place with the same time; Binda dropped to fourth place in the general classification and Demuysere became the new leader. The sixth and seventh stages were again bunch sprints, without changes on top of the general classification. In the eighth stage, there was again a categorized mountain; Binda reached the top first, receiving a time bonus of two minutes. The stage itself was also won by Binda in the same time as the competition, but because of the time bonus on the mountain top he won back the pink jersey.
