Go up
—
After the ascent of Mantjuic – mid-stage – in the second stage, the first uphill finish is expected in the third stage: Suria-Arinsal.Andorra of 158.5 km with the Coll d’Ordino (first category climb) at 20 about km from the arrival. The sixth stage (La Vall’d’Uixo-Observatorio Astrofisico de Javalambre, 181.3 km) also finished uphill, with the finish line in Alto de Javalambre at 1950 metres. Busy day also in the eighth stage: Denia-Xorret de Catì. Costa Blanca Interior of 164.8 km with one gpm of third, three of second and one of first category. But for those with classification ambitions, beware of the unexpected: the twelfth stage (Ivega-Saragoza, 165.4 km) could reserve strong winds for the peloton.
Space for sprinters
—
There will be opportunities for sprinters. For fast wheels, the occasion could reach the fourth stage with the finish line in Tarragona, the seventh in Oliva and the nineteenth in Íscar before the final catwalk in Madrid. Instead, the twentieth stage (Manzanares el Real-Guadarrama, 208.4 km) is expected to be eventful: 4000 meters of difference in altitude divided into 10 third-category mountain grands prix.
