Route

In May 2023, the route was announced by organisers PMG Sport/Starlight.^[2] The race started in Tuscany with an individual time trial, before heading north-west through the Emilia-Romagna, Piedmont, Liguria regions. After seven stages, the race transferred to Sardinia for the last two stages.^[2] The announcement of the route was criticised, taking place around 1 month prior to the event.^[4] The route itself was also criticised, with a drop in the total number of stages and stage length compared to previous editions.^[4]

As with the previous editions, the route required a waiver from the Union Cycliste Internationale, as Women's WorldTour races have a maximum race length of six days.^[5]

Summary

Prior to the race, three-time winner Annemiek van Vleuten of Movistar Team was considered the favourite for the victory,^[8] with media noting that riders such as Gaia Realini and Elisa Longo Borghini of Lidl–Trek, Mavi Garcia of Liv Racing TeqFind and Niamh Fisher-Black of SD Worx would also be contenders.^[8]^[9] Marta Bastianelli of UAE Team ADQ will retire from professional cycling following her home race.^[10]

One day prior to the event, an official start list was not available.^[11] The organisation of the race was criticised by Lizzie Deignan, noting the financial difficulties of the organiser.^[11]

Stages

Stage 1

30 June 2023 — Chianciano, 4.4 km (2.7 mi) (ITT)

The first stage of the 2023 Giro d'Italia Donne featured an individual time trial (ITT) with a length of 4.4 kilometres (2.7 mi) around Chianciano Terme in Tuscany.^[6] Heavy rain and thunderstorms affected the stage, with multiple riders crashing including Mavi Garcia and Chloé Dygert of Canyon–SRAM - with Dygert still managing to set the fastest time. 2022 winner van Vleuten then beat Dygert, before the organisers called for a pause due to the weather. Resuming around 20 minutes later, Letizia Paternoster of Team Jayco-AlUla then beat van Vleuten's time by five-hundredths of a second.^[7]

With over 100 riders remaining, the organisers paused the stage again due to standing water on the roads and full storm drains.^[12]^[13] The stage was eventually cancelled on the grounds of rider safety using the Extreme Weather Protocol.^[7]^[13] van Vlueten called the stage "a lottery" and that it was good that the stage had been cancelled.^[14]

All times set were disregarded, and no classification jerseys were awarded. The race therefore started on stage 2 on Saturday 1 July.^[15]

Broadcasting

Prior to the race, organisers PMG Sport/Starlight stated that they could not afford the €730,000 cost of TV coverage, which is required for the UCI Women's World Tour. Media reports suggested that without TV coverage, the race could be cancelled.^[33] Subsequently, agreement was made between the Italian Cycling Federation and Italian national broadcaster RAI to broadcast the race.^[34] CyclingNews reported that each stage would have "roughly one hour" of live coverage on RAI, Eurosport and Global Cycling Network.^[11]
