Finishing second to Vos on two previous occassions (on Stage 4 and 7), Johansson surged ahead of her breakaway companion to take her first Giro Donne victory. "On the first climb I suffered a bit, said Johansson. "But in the final [ascent and descent] I knew it could be my day. Now it's time to celebrate and relax before big events that lie ahead."

Through seven stages of the 2012 Giro Donne, the defending champion has tallied a total of four victories on her way to the overall race lead. Her latest win was another masterful work by a young woman, who is unquestionably at the top of the women’s cycling world. With the day's major break of twelve strong, including BePink teammates Noemi Cantele and Elke Gebhardt, Amanda Spratt (GreenEdge AIS), Jade Borgato (Diadora Pasta Zara), Shelley Olds (AA Drink Leontien.nl) Anna van der Breggen (The Netherlands), Ina Yoko Teutenberg (Specialized - Lulumenon), Marta Tagliaferro and Alessandra Borchi (Mcipollini Giambenini), Lise Nostvold (Hitec Products - Home Mistral), Liesbet De Vocht (Stichting Rabobank) and Romy Kasper (Rus Veil), pulled back after the intermediate sprint, which was won by Olds, the General Classif...
