マルコ・パンターニ
Since the death of Marco Pantani in 2004, stages of the Giro that go over the Mortirolo feature a special prize to the first man at the top of the pass, called Cima Pantani ("Pantani Top"). A monument to Marco Pantani was erected in 2006 by the "Italian Professional Riders Association" in the eighth kilometre of the road from Mazzo di Valtellina.
