Race Situation
There are three official climbs to be taken on, and they're front-loaded, making an inviting springboard for any strong climbers who want to get into the break. And potentially any GC threats wanting to leap up the rankings? It will likely be very hard to control at the start of the day, and race leader Enric Mas' Movistar team will need to be on their toes.
You join us as the peloton is in Almuñécar, a first venture into the province of the Granada where this race will return to for its end just over a week from now. They're making their way through the (long) neutralised section, ahead of what we're anticipating to be a huge battle to get up the road on what looks like a nailed-on day for the breakaway.
