Climb to La Molina kind of starts, 20 km left. Low gradient though until now.

before returning to the mountains for the ski-station finish in La Molina – site of Spain’s first ski lift – it’s 5.3km at 6% in the roadbook but a touch less in reality, with a maximum of 8% at two kilometres to go.

Summary of commentary so far:
Kirby: *something stupid*
Backstedt: "Well actually, it isn't like that..."
So much respect for Backstedt for not letting Kirby get away with everything.

David Harmon? Easily the best English commentator in the business.

It isn't steep enough so I wouldn't be surprised if a handful of riders sprint it out. Betancur could be an interesting pick from here.

But it is a line-up full of GT contenders. All of them should be eager to make a statement at least and give it a go. If not more, at least they will brighten my day and light up this stage a bit.

Purito with a massive acceleration there, very good. 
Froome blew up in that last km, finished even behind the BMC rider. |
