Preview stage 1. From the 14 to the 18 of February the peloton tackles the Vuelta a Andalucia. Last year Tadej Pogacar took the victory, the Spanish race hosts big names every single year with exciting racing.

The opening day of the race is incredibly tricky. 3700 meters of climbing, however this is not a day that features any big climb. The riders do go from sea level to 1500 meters of altitude slowly mid-stage, but come-down. It is in Cádiar that the stage ends with a downhill finale, however this comes after a 3.3-kilometer ascent at 7.6% that finishes with 2 kilometers to go.

Stage 1: La Herradura (Almuñécar) - Cádiar, 163.4 kilometers
