On paper, this has the look of a day for the break, but this is also the kind of stage that could very easily spiral into a full-blown general classification day. It’s certainly going to be difficult for any one team to control affairs. The overall contenders will be vigilant and some might even be eyeing an opportunity.

With 2,900 metres of climbing spread across the stage and its four climbs – two second-category and two third-category – there's certainly potential for red jersey contenders to launch attacks and gain time.
