Another stage for the sprinters, another stage with a late hill which was part of a previous world championships circuit. Today is also a relative rest day for the overall contenders ahead of this weekend’s mountain showdown.

A shorter stage, a lively route with a tricky finish, this is a fun stage to ride and watch.

A break or a bunch sprint? There’s a good chance the breakaway riders stay away on this stage, the longest of the race.

A calmer stage after yesterday’s volcano action, today’s stage offers a parade along the Mediterranean coast, an interlude for the sprinters ahead of tomorrow’s uphill finish.
