Stage 1: Vitoria-Fasteiz - Elgoibar, 140.2 kilometers
The first stage of the race is a tricky one... A breakaway could succeed as not all sprinters will be confident of making it to the finish, but also climbers don't really have terrain to make the difference. The day features two difficult climbs but the latter one summits with 42 kilometers to go; there is another one closer to the finish but it is nowhere as difficult. A sprint finish is expected in Elgoibar.
Stage 2: Basauri - Basauri, 104.4 kilometers
The second day of racing is not too different. It is shorter in distance; only 104 kilometers on the menu but with a brutal 1.5-kilometer long climb at over 12% summiting with 39 kilometers to go will certainly split the race. In the following flat kilometers it may come back together, but the final 7 kilometers will feature a few explosive hilltops which could very well see a late attack set off for victory.

Stage 3: San Sebastián - San Sebastián, 115.1 kilometers
Possibly the queen stage of the race. From and to San Sebastián, the riders find the rolling roads that make the region famous. However two climbs are set to make serious damage:
Jaizkibel (6.8Km at 6.2%; 71Km to go) and Mendizorrotz (3.4Km at 8.4%; 28Km to go). The last one specially features gruesome gradients and is climber territory. The GC could be decided on these climbs, but after the last one there is still a long flat run-in back to the city where a lot can happen.

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- Bruyneel understands nothing about clean competition.Sweep21-12-2024
- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024
- Ahhh..... you have to understand the "strange" diversity concepts of the BBCslappers6621-12-2024
- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
