Description

Jerusalem (Israel) – Jerusalem (Israel)

Stage 1 - May 4 - 9.7 km (6 mi)

< Home - Stage 2 >

The Stage

The stage is an individual time trial running through the city. The roads are variably wide and the route is very wavy, with several bends and constantly changing gradients. Split time is taken at km 5.1. At km 7.3, the route takes in a short, well-lit tunnel. Final kilometres: the last 3 km are wavy, still on city roads. The route descends slightly in the first part, with a bend 750 m before the finish. The final 300 m run steeply uphill, with gradients peaking 9% over the last 100 m. The home straight is on 6.5-m wide tarmac.
Winner: Tom Dumoulin!

Roglic is fully focused on the Tour this year; it's going to be really interesting to see how he'll do. Last week he sure showed what he can do.

Hats off to Dumoulin! Watching the stage I thought he was gonna lose some seconds to avoid unnecessary risks on the very technical route (which I think he did), yet he won. Wow!

A great start and with Froome crashing before the time trial this could get quite interesting.
