Mountains better than expected imo.
Bondone is a proper tappone and with the more interesting side that should create bigger gaps. The Lombardia stage is pretty awesome and stage 8 also kicks ass. Not a fan of the final ITT, but other than that it's a really good route. A pleasant surprise.

Cancel the Lussari MTT, make the mid Giro ITT at least 10kms longer and replace Lussari with a Trieste stage with a hard hilly circuit. That would be one hell of a Giro route.
Still, ignoring the final MTT this one is rock solid. A good amount of kms of ITT, 3 Tapponi and at least 2 hard, giro style, hilly stages. A proper gt route without gimmick mini-mountain stages or an extra steep ramp on top of a perfectly fine climb.

I suspect you will get a good sprint field as the parcours is likely to be more friendly than in the TDF.
