Giro d'Italia stages 13, 14 & 15 preview
Magnus Cort, Pascal Ackermann and Nico Denz can now call themselves 2023 Giro d'Italia stage winners, but the maglia rosa still belongs to Geraint Thomas, who commands a two-second lead over Primoz Roglic as the riders tackle perhaps the most challenging segment of the race so far.
Stage 13 (today) sees the peloton cross the border to Switzerland. It was supposed to involve the Colle del Gran San Bernardo, a brutal road pass, but heavy snow has changed things. The riders will now pass underneath instead. What they'll find on the other side waiting, though, is the trek up the Croix de Coeur, the last 4km of which cranks the gradient up to 10.3%. Then there's challenging descent and finally light at the end of the tunnel with an uphill finish waiting at Crans-Montana, following another 13.1km of climbing at 7.2%. Seriously, why do they do this?
Stage 14 (Saturday) is one for the sprinters. Well, kind of, because before they can get their heads down there's the small matter of a 20.2km, 6.5% slog up the Simplon Pass. That's the only major obstacle though, so once that's ticked off it's pretty much flat all the way, save for a couple of lumps.
Stage 15 (Sunday), on the other hand, is a horror show, the sort of stage that keeps riders up at night. Four intermediate climbs punctuate the 195km route from Seregno to Bergamo, the first of which – the Valico di Valcava – features a 3km stretch that doesn't drop below 10%, and goes as high as 17%. And just as the riders will sense the finish line, the Colle Aperto brings pebbles into the equation.
