Stage 15: Fiume Veneto โ Asiago, 219 km (Sunday 25, dep. 11:25-11:35, arr. 16:50-17:30)
A long stage with two long but not very steep climbs.
Stage with high difficulties, 15 points to the winner.
The 3 km rule applies for falls/incidents in the finish.
Delays : 16% if โค 30 km/h; 17% if โค 34 km/h; 18% otherwise. Expected average speeds: 37 km/h โ 1h04'16'', 39 km/h โ 1h00'40'', 41 km/h โ 57'04''.
We can note how the time bonus sprint has been located within the second long climb, probably to trigger the final attacks around that point. Also, delays are huge (โ1h), so even riders in trouble at the start of first long climb should finish in time.
Too many things happened today, for me to describe them ๐ฅณ
