Analysis

The 102nd edition of the Volta a Catalunya returns to a mountain-top finish -one of no less than three in year’s race- which the Movistar Team holds dear memories of: Lo Port, the venue for one of Alejandro Valverde’s most resounding victories, in 2017, against Froome and Contador. It will be the first time in a long while without ‘Bala’ at the start of the longest-standing Spanish stagerace, though the Telefónica-backed squad will still head into it with real excitement.

As well as that climb to the Mirador del Portell (9.4km at 8%; Friday 24th), set to be decisive together with the traditional final circuit in Barcelona / Montjuïc (Sunday 26th), there will be two other mountain stages, really well-known ones in the Pyrenees. The finishes on stages two and three will be Vallter (Tuesday 21st), with its last 11km at 7.6%, and La Molina (Wednesday 22nd), a gentler 12km at 4% – yet preceded by Coubet (Cat-1) and La Creueta (HC).
