The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2024 Volta ao Algarve will feature a rolling 22km time trial that is likely to appeal to riders preparing for the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia. As per tradition, the route includes summit finishes on the Alto da Fóia and the Alto do Malh&atild🌜e;o.
The race takes place from February 14-18 and it gets underway with a 200km stage from Portimão to Lagos, where the sprinte꧃rs should be to tꦇhe fore on the Avenida dos Descobrimentos.
Stage 2 brings the peloton into the Serra de Monchique, where the race takes in 172km and the ascents of Alferce and Pomba ahead of the summit finale on the Alto da Fóia, where 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tadej Pogačar claimed his first professional win in 2019.
The third day of racing – a 192km run from Vila Real de Santo António to Tavira – is nominally one for the sprinters, though in 2023, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Filippo Ganna's forcing on the same 🐻finale forced a split that ultimately helped to tee 🦩up Magnus Cort's dramatic victory.
The time tr🔜ial on stage 4 follows an undulating course around Albufeira that will provide a most usefu🥂l work out for riders with designs on the time trial-heavy Giro or Tour.
The final stage to the Alto do Malhão again promises to be an explosive affair. The 166km day takes in the climbs of Vermelhos and Alte ahead꧂ of a double ascent of the short, sharp Malhão.
