A short stage, only 153 km long, but intense, with a difference in elevation of up to 2130 meters, which may give you some surprises.
The Pink Caravan will leave at 1.30 pm from Piazza del Plebiscito. Technically speaking, the start will start at the Rotonda Diaz, around 13.35. The group will climb the hills of Posillipo and Coroglio, and from Agnano they will continue on the municipality of Pozzuoli towards Solfatara. From there, along Via Consiliare Campana, the athletes will reach Quarto, where they will enter the State Road and then exit Lago Patria along Liternum, in the territory of the municipality of Giugliano, and take the old Via Domitiana. Continuing towards Pozzuoli, the athletes will enter the Phlegraean Peninsula where they will perform a challenging circuit of about 19 kilometers to cross the towns of Pozzuoli, Bacoli and Monte di Procida, to be covered four times. There are two flying finishes, one at km 37.4 near Lake Patria Liternum and the other at km 115.7 in Bacoli, as well as a Class 4 mountain Grand Prix at km 118.7 at Monte de Procida.
