PREVIEW | Vuelta a Andalucia 2024 stage 2 - UAE, Bahrain and Felix Gall tackle key GC day

Preview stage 2. 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.

NOTE: THE STAGE HAS BEEN CANCELLED. A NEW RACE PLAN HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED.

The second day of racing has a tough start right outside Vélez-Málaga, with a few climbs. A 17-kilometer climb will open things up. Midway through the stage we'll have a key climb in the race which is 3 kilometers at 9.8%, which several explosive hilltops right after. The race may break apart here. There is still a long way to go to the finish however, and the hilltop finish into Alcaudete is 8.5 kilometers at 3.5% - not a serious climb, but differences can be made here certainly, and tactics can be crucial.
