I don't think it's too hard, only 4k with 15% max and 12.2% avg... But the interesting part will be to see who will have the legs after the previous climbs, they seem not too steep, but they are leg-breakers climbs.

Sunday will be massive, so I don't know if we will see fireworks on this one, maybe on those last 2k, but not too much.
 
There are 100s of threads discussing how to fix racing or why a race is bad, but you know what ruins racing the most for me...crashes. Yes, the are part of racing, but they seem to have an ever increasing affect on races.
 
A day to forget for EF. Not sure why Tejay crashed as the descent didn't look very technical but at least he's still in the race. Bad luck for Roche as well who was having a good race.
Have not seen the broadcast yet but EF guys seem to be constantly in the fat-middle of the pack with nowhere to go. TJ is particularly slack on that count, yet tall enough to see unlike Rigo. Rigo's crash in previous stage he was in same place...

They were on a descent. A tight turn surprised a Jumbo Visma rider... So, no big fat middle-of-the-pack, rather a paceline.
The crash the other ay was on a side. All fallen riders were on the left colored shoulder.
And, on the other hand, I frequently see Rigo on the sides, that much that I think he doesn't draft very well
