By David Hunter San Roque – Penas Blancas 171km As announced a couple of days ago, the final stage is not as previously advertised! Instead of climbing Penas Blancas once, the peloton now have to tackle it twice. They first climb it from the north, then descend into Estepona, before heading back up the road they…
By David Hunter Sealine Beach Resort – Doha Cornice 114km The race ends with the usual lap circuit in Doha Corniche. This is a familiar stage, with Demare winning in 2014 and Bennett in 2015.

By David Hunter Nowy Sacz – Zakopane 223km The GC battle starts here. The riders face a long day in the saddle, with may challenges along the way. It’s another lap circuit, but this isn’t your normal route around a city. The circuit features 3 climbs:-
