By David Hunter Alba > Sestriere 190km It’s a real shame that the original route couldn’t go ahead as planned, France have pulled down the shutters and refused access, so the Agnello and Izoard have been cut, and we end up with a much easier stage. Quite convenient for the French to get their own race…

By David Hunter Garray. Numancia > Ejea de los Caballeros 191.7km At last, a boring sprint stage.

By David Hunter Come on, who’s idea was this?

By David Hunter Lodosa > La Laguna Negra 166.1km Another mountaintop finish?

By David Hunter Irun > Arrate 173km The racing kicks off with a familiar climb.

By David Hunter Udine > San Daniele Del Friuli 229km Don’t let the profile fool you, this is a GC day.

By David Hunter Another Grand Tour? Let’s do it. Key Stages Stage 1 The race kicks off right from the start. If you don’t quite have the legs, your GC campaign will be over before it starts. The finish in Arrate is one you’ll know from the Tour of the Basque Country.

By David Hunter Cesenatico – Cesenatico 204km Yet another day for the breakaway.

By David Hunter Porto Sant’Elpidio > Rimini 182km A flat stage for the sprinters to get their teeth into.
