After two hilly days which allowed for breakaways, The Return finds a summit finish this Thursday on the occasion of a 12th stage that is difficult to predict. The shortest stage of these three weeks with only 137.4 km to cover between the thermal baths of Ourense and the resort from ski to Manzaneda, the route still looks favourable to adventurers with steep roads but without any difficulty listed to reach the foot of the justice of the peace of the day, a final climb far from being frightening with its 15.4 km at only 4.7% on average. Enough to favour good climbers without completely excluding from the game adventurers in top form.
Video – Ben O’Connor could lose time again this Thursday
Will Ben O’Connor lose more time this Thursday or will he recover?
But given the scenario of the day before and the weaknesses displayed by the red mallot Ben O’Connor (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale), some favorite teams like the Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe or the Movistar could be tempted to control on this very short track – especially if the breakaway takes time to form – in order to allow Primoz Roglic or Enrique Mas to play for the victory and thus collect some additional bonuses, even if the playing field and the low percentages do not seem on paper ideal for creating big gaps.
Route of the 12th stage
Thursday, August 29, 2024 – Step 12 : Ourense – Manzaneda Mountain Station, 137.4 km (departure 2:19 p.m., arrival around 5:30 p.m.)
