PREVIEW | Vuelta a Andalucia 2025 stage 4 - Can Kristoff win again or will uphill sprint fit Pidcock and van Gils better?
CyclingFriday, 21 February 2025 at 15:45
From the 19th to the 23rd of February we have one of the most important Spanish stage-races of the season. This will be the Vuelta a Andalucia, taking place in a warm part of the country, always with a mix of explosive stages that traditionally attract the climbers and classics riders a lot. We preview stage 4.
Another day that is rather suited to the sprinters, with a few small climbs throughout the day that can be used for some attacks or for a breakaway to make it hard for the peloton... But everything points towards a bunch sprint in Alhaurin de la Torre (where again, it will be slightly uphill).
Stage 4: Córdoba - Alhaurin de la Torre, 195.2 kilometers
Prediction Vuelta a Andalucia 2025 stage 4:
*** Maxim van Gils, Alexander Kristoff, Tom Pidcock
** Ben Turner, Alex Laurance
* Tim Wellens, Oliver Naesen, Jon Barrenetxea, Anders Foldager, Brandon Rivera, Markus Hoelgaard
** Ben Turner, Alex Laurance
* Tim Wellens, Oliver Naesen, Jon Barrenetxea, Anders Foldager, Brandon Rivera, Markus Hoelgaard
Pick: Maxim van Gils
How: The sprint will get steeper towards the finish line and I think it may be enough for van Gils to outsprint the Norwegian.
