The fourth round of the Swiss test, which is 152.5 kilometers, in between monthey and leukerbadIt has two parts that are well differentiated. The first 80 kilometers are completely flat, the remaining 70 are completely broken, with constant ups and downs, with hard climbs in Crans-Montana (14.6 kilometers at 6.7%) and Varenstrasse (2.8 kilometers at 5.1%). The stage will be decided in the final kilometers of the day, with the best riders in the race trying to star.

At the head of the race runners like Narváez, Calmejane, Vermaerke or Gino Maderthat several kilometers became the temporary leader of the race, at the expense of a Mattias Skjelmose that he would finally hand over the leader’s jersey but in the hands of another rider. Among them, the Frenchman Calmejane will be the first to try to extend his leading role on the stage, but behind him the speed will increase until the celebrities in the group eat them.

The first to jump like a rocket from the group where the best rider is the Austrian Felix Gall, who took off like a rocket and gradually passed the survivors of the broken leak until he was leading the race. He never had much of a difference, more than two minutes, but it was enough for him to reach the finish line successfully.
