The great protagonist of this eighteenth stage of the Giro is the Muro di Ca' del Poggio, a landmark of the area and often packed with crowds along its 1,100 metres of gradients at 12.3%.
Its strategic position 9.3 kilometres from the finish makes it absolutely crucial: it can split the sprint or, more likely, decide the fate of whatever breakaway reaches the punishing uphill finish with options.
