Entering the Pyrenees on just the third day of racing is likely to bring new protagonists to the fore, although this stage’s profile is more likely to trigger an attack by a group of strong breakaway riders rather than encouraging the world’s best climbers onto the offensive. Despite 3,950 metres of vertical gain that include the climb up the Col de Toses before the riders leave Spain, the plateaux surrounding Font-Romeu and the climb to Les Angles (1.7km at an average gradient of 7%) are more likely to provide a springboard for a surprise guest.
