Bait Mohammed Bin Khalifa > Jebel Hafeet 161km

After what seemed like an eternity of sprint  stages, it’s time to go climbing again. The riders head to Jebel Hafeet, and the GC will be decided. Jay Vine is currently in the race lead, but things are nice and tight, it should be a fascinating battle. It’s the first time for ages that we don’t know who’s going to win this stage before it starts. I’m not saying I’m a genius, it’s just been very easy to predict the past winners: Adam Yates, Pogačar (x3), Adam Yates & Valverde. One thing is certain, we’ll have a new name this year.
