From the 15th to 19th of February 2023 the peloton will be in Spain for what is one of the most reputable early-season stage-races, the Vuelta a Andalucia. Stage 1 will immediately be a meaningful climbing challenge, perhaps the queen stage as the climbers go head-to-head.
The opening day of the race will have 4000 meters of climbing in what is a true high mountain stage, in true Spanish form with the ascents ranging from start to finish. The 179 kilometers will feature three 1st category climbs, having 8.1Km at 6.9, 16.5Km at 4.5% and 10.6Km at 5.8%. The latter of those summits with only 8 kilometers to go and will see a descent followed by a sharp drag to the line inside the village of Antiao de la Espada.
