Analysis
With no women’s version this time -the race was part of the new Itzulia Women, back in May- and over a course identical to the one in 2021, Spain’s only WorldTour one-day event will again offer picturesque, spectacular terrain, suited to both the climbers and the best classics specialists in the peloton.
Following the initial ascents to Azkarate (Cat-3; 63km), Urraki (Cat-2; 83km) and Alkiza (Cat-3; 104km), the Basque event will start its decisive loops with about 70km, first over the famous Jaizkibel (Cat-2, 161km; eight kilometers at 5.6%), then the brutal Erlaitz (Cat-1, 181km; almost four kilometers at 10.6%), whose ramps could well create the decisive selection. If it doesn’t happen, then it all will come down to Murgil Tontorra (Cat-2; 2.1km at 10.1%), whose summit is placed just 8km from the end.
