Analysis

Looking only at the profiles, one could think that the 2023 Tour of Britain is mostly a race for sprinters. However, it will always end up being so demanding due to foul weather, six-man teams -which makes it so hard to control the race-, twisty roads with urban obstacles, bonus seconds, plenty of transfers (the race jumps across the whole of England and Wales in just eight days) – and any stage could thus become decisive.

Actually, if we again keep our eyes only on the altimetry details, the toughest courses are in the beginning and the finale. Already at the opener on Sunday 3rd, there will be quite some hills around Manchester (2,300m elevation in 163km), which could shrink the size of the peloton -it will be less than 100 riders at the start already, mind you!-.

The last weekend includes very hilly stages to Gloucester -Saturday 9th, over Crawley Hill (Cat-2; 1.7km at 6.6%) with 26km to go, then another ascent before the line- and most importantly the final circuit over the Caerphilly Mountain (Sunday 10th), two climbs of 1.3km at 10% (!).
