Looks pretty good on paper imo. Hopefully some of the roads are narrow, twisty etc. Jan Christen will attack somewhere....

Looks like a sprint stage to me.
Porcuna 2,5 km at 3,6% for example shoulndt work as an attack ramp. Alto de Penallana looks steep on the profile, but 4,7km at 4,4% shouldnt be a problem for the sprinters with 70 km to go.
Yeah, the profile is scaled really weirdly.

This finish would've been perfect for the King of Het Hageland, the mytical Citadel sprinter Rasmus Tiller. Maybe too hard (steep/technical) for his teammate Wærenskjold?

Ivan Romeo, climbs really well for 75kg, seems to have a talent for long efforts. You would think he could do something in the classics, he’s ridden some but clearly when he was younger and weaker whilst riding for others, don’t want to damn him by saying the rider he reminds me of.

What's wrong about comparing him to a young Geraint Thomas?
