Stage 2 preview: Brussels → Spa, 201 km (rolling/hilly)

На третий день Тура на конец появляются первые очки горной классификации

Стартовав на вчерашнем финише в Брюссле, Тур продолжит путь на Юго-Запад, где дорога будет всё холмистее и холмистее, повторяя маршрут Арденнских классик, Флеш Валонь и Льеж — Бастонь — Льеж.

В общей сложности на второй половине этапа будет шесть подъёмов 4-3 категории. Эти подъёмы не самые трудные, так что интересно будет посмотреть, сколько спринтеров останется к финишу этапа в Спа. Очевидно, город, принимающий финиш, "Мекка в мире термальных спа", был назван так ещё во времена древнего Рима. — Steve/Михаил Колокольцев
