The second race of the Challenge Mallorca is one where the sprinters will have a full opportunity to capitalize on. The Trofeo Ses Salines is every year a good indicator for the fast men's form. We take a look at it's profile.
The race will be 185 kilometers in length and will consist of two loops of a large circuit. This circuit includes a small ascent, which in the final lap comes with 34 kilometers to go but it will certainly not be hard enough to do real damage.
It's not a completely flat race however most sprinters should comfortably make their way into the Colònia de Saint Jordi in search of a win. The sprint will have absolutely nothing technical about it, it is an opportunity for the team's to test their new leadout trains into the 2025 season.

Just check over the last 6 months and you will see the response is over 10x over other posts. Stop complaining and do not post or hit the like button, you are playing right into there hands.
Senna196022-03-2025 - i realize that Tommy knows VOLUMES more about his craft than i do, and i realize he maybe wasn’t bothering to give the most highly thought out answers of all time here, BUT… if mathieu gets to the TOP of the poggio first, how exactly is it that GANNA gets to the BOTTOM ahead of him? maybe the “frame pump in the spokes” trick from Breaking Away? ganna isn’t exactly what you’d call a gifted descender, and i’ve noticed mvdp is a PRETTY DECENT bike handler at any speed, not too shabby at cornering and accelerating… I’m glad tom feels good, though. it’ll be a really fun race. (but if van der poel DOES get to the top first, it’s over.)OCexile21-03-2025

- Agreed. Am Slovenian but she's strange rider, either the terrain fully suits her and she can be a leader or she's completely useless riding at the backvappaxbipmv21-03-2025
- My thoughts as well. The constant insertion of Armstrong, Bruyneel and even Hincrapie into news stories tends to give it away.
ScottG21-03-2025 - just because others were doping doesn't really excuse what LA was doing, especially how ruthless he was towards others. Can we just stop listening to him and his pals already?Crashjames21-03-2025
