TOUR OF SLOVENIA LIVE ON EUROSPORT & TELEVISION SLOVENIJA Here’s the broadcast schedule for 2023 edition. >>> tinyurl.com/26mfyamc #TourOfSlovenia #FightForGreen #ifeelsLOVEnia #Eurosport #TVSlovenija #Live #LiveBroadcast
Preview. From the 14th to the 18th of June takes place the Tour of Slovenia, a race that has in recent years gained notoriety because of the nation's stars, and one that is now more often used as preparation for the Tour de France.
Stage 1 of the race sees the riders head into Rogaska Slatina, a day that should be for the sprinters however it features quite a lot of rolling hills throughout the day.
The best suited day for the sprinters. Stage 2 of the Tour of Slovenia sees the riders race from Zalec and Ormoz throughout 163 kilometers, not a pan-flat day, but the small ascents that come close to the finish shouldn't be enough to disrupt a bunch sprint.
Stage 3 could open the overall classification. There will be a rather long ascent early in the day however it shouldn't be decisive to the outcome of the day. It'll be in Postojna that the stage will be decided, there is a decently tough hill just inside the final 15 kilometers that could split things up, a very open finale.
Stage 1: Celje - Rogaska Slatina, 188.6 kilometers
Stage 2: Zalec - Ormoz, 163.7 kilometers
Stage 3: Grosuplje - Postojna, 174.8 kilometers
Stage 4: Ljubljana - Kobarid, 166.5 kilometers
The queen stage, very clearly and quite a difficult one. The race has been here quite a lot in the past, this year it'll be ridden twice the ascent to Kolovrat. It's 10.1 kilometers long at 8.9% and the riders will have to go up it twice before reaching the finish in Kobarid.
The final day of the race is the best suited to a breakaway, with big gaps in the overall classification created many will have freedom and the climbing start to the day should see many trying. Whether they succeed or not the stage could see it's decision in the climb to Trska Gora which is 1.7 kilometers at 9.8%, which will also serve as a last spot to attack the overall classification.
Stage 5: Vrhnika - Novo Mesto
Prediction Tour of Slovenia 2023 overall classification:
*** Filippo Zana, Lorenzo Fortunato
** Wout Poels, Lucas Hamilton
* Diego Ulissi, Ide Schelling, Matej Mohoric, Matteo Badilatti
