The 5th and final stage of the
Volta a Comunitat Valenciana will be a very open one,.
The GC fight can open up once again en route to Valencia in a day that can also be taken by a breakaway or even a sprinter as Giulio Ciccone looks to defend his lead.
The final stage of the race is only 93 kilometers long but will have an interesting profile. A very tricky day to predict. 7Km at 4% and 4.5Km at 9.3% will make for a pretty difficult challenge in the first half of the day, where a strong breakaway or even GC attacks may take place. The riders will then have a pan flat run-in to Valencia to end the race on a high.
Stage 5: Paterna - Valencia, 93.2 kilometers
