PREVIEW | Gran Camino 2024 stage 3 - Hilly day the best opportunity for sprinters; Jonas Vingegaard's first test in the yellow jersey

Preview stage 3. From the 22nd to the 25th of February the Spanish peloton takes on O Gran Camiño. Jonas Vingegaard headlines the race that features days for the climbers to test their early-season form.

Stage 3 features several climbs. The whole day is close to the border with Portugal, and features a few small climbs. A day for the puncheurs perhaps, it is very open. A final climb of 4.5 kilometers at 5.7% summits with 20 kilometers to go. There are no flat roads from there onwards though, with a few small climbs and a large descent taking the riders into Castelo de Ribadavia.
