The Critérium du Dauphiné continues this Friday with the sixth stage between Nantua and Crest-Voland. The day before Jonas Vingegaard crushed the competition by winning solo with a 30-second lead over a group of ten riders and now has a 1 minute 10 lead overall over Ben O’Connorhis closest pursuer.
The Dane will once more be one of the favorites this Friday with the arrival at the top of Crest-Voland. On the program, 170km and four climbs, including three placed in the last 25 kilometers. The Côte de Droisy, 7.9km long at an average of 4.5% is located 120km from the finish and should allow the riders to warm up the engine.
The serious things will begin following a little over 140km with the Col des Aravis and its 7.7km at 6% average. The hardest percentages are located at the start of the ascent with a passage of 9.2% in the second kilometer. In the last ten kilometers, you will then have to manage the Côte de Notre Dame de Bellecombe and Crest-Voland sequence. The Côte de Notre Dame de Bellecombe is 3.2km at 6.4% and a passage of 11.5% at the end of the first kilometer. The climb of Crest-Voland is more or less similar with the highest percentages placed at the start of the ascent. 2.4km climb at 6.9% average, but above all 600 meters at 13.8%. The finish will be judged at the top of Crest-Voland, the last 400 meters of which are flat.
The sixth stage of this Critérium du Dauphiné might therefore appeal to climbers like Vingegaard or punchers like Alaphilippefound since the start of the French stage race.
