Tirreno-Adriatico has seen it's queen stage slightly cut. The final ascent to Sarnano-Sassotetto has seen it's final 2 kilometers scraped off today's stage as the weather conditions at the top made it unsafe to run the race.
Whilst at Paris-Nice the first 117 kilometers have been cut, the Italian race does not see such a critical situation. The final climb has had it's distance removed but is nevertheless set to be 10.7 kilometers at 7.3%, difficulties which should not affect the outcome of the day significantly and will see the same riders battle for victory.
