(Reuters) - Team Sky's Mikel Nieve negotiated the tough mountain climbs between Palmanova and Cividale del Friuli to win the 13th stage of the Giro d'Italia on Friday, as Andrey Amador claimed the leader's pink jersey. Nieve, who won a Giro stage five years ago, set the tempo for much of the later part of the 170km ride. The 31-year-old Spaniard finished 43 seconds ahead of second-placed Giovanni Visconti, to give a boost to Team Sky, who lost Mikel Landa to illness earlier in the week.
