Analysis

The women’s ‘cycling spring’ in terms of big classics comes to an end with Liège-Bastogne-Liège, a race of demanding slopes, perfectly suited to Annemiek van Vleuten’s abilities, where the Olympic champion will try, just as she did in 2019, to close her one-day campaign in style.

Seven rated climbs are part of the Doyenne‘s 142km route, starting with Mont-le-Soie (55km) and two of the ascents traditionally making a selection in the field: Wanne (63km) and Haute-Levée (72km) -no Stockeu this year-.

After the long climb of Rosier (86km after the start; almost five kilometers in length) and the relatively new, steep Desnié (99km; 1.6km at 8%), the riders will take on the two decisive ascents: La Redoute (2km at 9%), just 30km from the end; and the Roche-aux-Faucons (128km), with three different sections including an early part that is even harder than the Mur de Huy (1.3km at 11%).
