Editor's tip: The start of the third week takes the field from Brixen to Andalo. Only 133km are on the program, but they are quite a challenge: the Mendola Pass is quite long at 14km, but climbs constantly at 6,5% for the majority of the route and is too far from the finish line to be here anyway could count on decisive attacks from the ranking drivers. The situation is different with the Fai della Paganella, the summit of which is less than 10 km from the target and which, with a length of 10 km at 7,5%, certainly offers opportunities for attacks. Nibali, Valverde and Chaves will certainly try to get a few seconds back from Steven Kruiswijk.
