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. After taking the win on the opening day, Tadej Pogacar will already have to protect the leader's jersey on stage 2.
Stage two of the Andalusian race will be a day the riders won't quickly forget, one made for the pure puncheurs. It's a day that features two extremely steep climbs, the last combining with the finish. The riders will have 2.1 kilometers at 13.1% in the middle of climb that ends with just over 20 kilometers to go, and the finale in Alcalá La Real has 800 meters at 13%, narrow and with cobbles in the mix, it's a brutal burning effort all the way into the line.
Prediction Vuelta a Andalucia 2023 stage 2:
*** Tadej Pogacar
** Santiago Buitrago, Andreas Kron, Tao Geoghegan Hart
* Enric Mas, Mikel Landa, Carlos Rodríguez, Dylan Teuns, Jhonatan Narvaéz, Gonzalo Serrano
Pick: Tadej Pogacar
