Another rolling stage featuring three third-category climbs. It's the perfect day for an escape featuring riders who are down on GC but are willing to cooperate together to build a stage-winning lead. The final few hundred metres features the uphill cobbled roads of Cuenca leading to the town's castle. Bettini would fancy his chances today.
