those numbers don't quite add up (would average at 8.9%), so here's the strava segment and another profile:

They used the exact same climb as penultimate one in stage 10 of the 2020 Giro. Quite irregular and rough, unless it was repaved since.

At the end of the video, they turn left tomorrow for a 5k descent and then 9k of flat to the finish.
Both the start and end of that climb are ~30-40m lower than shown in your profile.

I think today Wout Van Aert takes his first victory of the season
He doesn't climb well enough anymore to mix it up with the best climbers on a murito, and he also isn't fast/reliable enough in sprints anymore that he's just easily going to clean up from a 50-rider group. He can still win, but he definitely isn't the main favourite here.

There's a decent group of 11 men on the attack now, but del Grosso and Cortina are only 1:30 back in GC, so it remains to be seen how much of a gap they'll get.
