The calm water lowers the flow of the river Italy is spinning after the quarterless battle experienced this Wednesday in the fifth stage of the Giro mountain range. Now, after the historic Colombian victory Santiago Buitrago and the attack on the podium Mikel Landa |radical change of scenery in ‘Pink Corsa’ before the last stretch of the race.
The setting for this Thursday’s attack on the Giro is inviting, 156 kilometers and 1,150 meters of elevation gain, inviting us to imagine that the outcome of the stage will be decided by sprint, with three prestigious sprinter left in the peloton, as is the case with Fernando Gaviria, Arnaud Démare or Mark Cavendishwho showed enough strength to surpass the mountain stages and arrive within the allotted time.
However, do not expect a quiet day. First, because of the two ports of the fourth category that are strategically distributed (The Primolano Scaleat km 23) and the Wall of Ca del Poggio (km 98). Pay attention to this short but explosive colossus, with more than a kilometer of climb, but with an average of 12.3% and a maximum gradient of 19% in the first quarter of the climb and 16% at the end.
Not to forget the battle of two special sprints, more of a Giro where every second is contested and where the differences are minimal.
Let’s see if there’s leakage, we’ll see what the habit is Mathieu Van der Poelif the sprinters win the game and if the higher ranked or aspiring runners do not attempt to scratch a second.
