Giro dell'Emilia
215.8 Kilometers
The final section of the race will be broadcast on Eurosport and discovery+ (14.45 CEST).
Three victories have been claimed by Movistar Team riders in this race, with Iván Gutiérrez (2003), Nairo Quintana (2012) and Enric Mas (2022).
The Movistar Team’s last Italian tournée of 2024 -one that will feature three weekends for the first time, as the Blues’ season ends with the Veneto races– starts on a high with the Giro dell’Emilia, the biggest prelude to Il Lombardia and an event that brings many good memories to the two team members, Enric Mas and Nairo Quintana, who have risen their arms victorious atop the Basilica di San Luca in Bologna.
As always, the race will be decided with the five consecutive climbs of the final circuit, 1.9km at 10.4% average, with slopes up to 16.5%. Before that, three rated climbs will also be overcome: Zocca (80km), Grizzana Morandi (113km) and Montechiaro (152km), the latter just twenty kilometers before entering Bologna and starting the finishing loop.
