Stage 1 - Saturday, August 27: Granada-Granada TT, 7 km

This seven kilometre race against the clock offers a small climb - about 150m in 2.3km - that may hurt the chances of the prologue specialists, but suit strong time triallists perfectly. Those with GC aspirations will probably be keeping plenty in the tank for all the tall stuff later in the race.
