A very difficult stage to call, this first of the 'Corsa Rosa' across the Italian Peninsula.
With 58 kilometres to go, the race hits the Cozzo Tunno (category 2): a full 15 kilometres at 6%, more than enough to split the peloton... but we are only on day four of the race.
Anything is possible: an organised breakaway going over the top; a favourites' selection at the finish in Cosenza... or even a bunch sprint.
Bonuses
There are 10-6-4" at the finish and 6-4-2" at the Red Bull Kilometre.
