Another hilly stage lies in wait on day two. The Cat-2 Challpass (6.3 at 6.1%) falls just 14km from the line in Aesch and is likely to decide the stage, with those who make it over the summit in the front group going on to contest the final sprint. Could we see an early GC skirmish?

This year, for the first time since 2008, the Tour de Suisse has done away with the traditional opening-day time trial, instead kicking off the race with four laps of a 44.4km circuit around Küsnacht. With two climbs on each lap, expect a punchy and aggressive start to the final warm-up race before the Tour de France.

Another short stage lies in wait on the final day of this year’s race and just like yesterday it’s packed with gruelling climbs. The race is set for a dramatic close on the hors categorie ascent of Plateau de Solaison (11.3km at 9%). With gradients that seldom dip below double-digits, this is an ascent for the pure climbers and we’re in for some final-day fireworks.

The shortest road stage of this year’s race, but - without a doubt - the hardest and therefore deserving of its ‘Queen stage’ status. Climbing starts in earnest on the Col du Galibier (20.7km at 5.2%), before the Col de la Croix de Fer (28.5km at 5.1%), then finally the steep slog up to Vaujany, where not only stage honours, but possibly the yellow jersey too will be decided.

Today the riders get their first real taste of what’s to come during the last two stages in the high-mountains. There aren’t any high-mountains to speak of between Rives and Gap, but there is a lot of hilly terrain and two Cat-2 tests which will give the climbers an opportunity to stretch their legs.

While it features the least climbing of any stage at this year’s race, just 2,200m, stage 5 is far from straightforward with two categorised climbs in the last 25km threatening to cause havoc. Keeping the bunch together over these two late climbs will be tough, which means that we could see some splits and a small group of riders go on to contest the finish in Chaintré.

This 32km-long race against the clock that should set the race for the yellow jersey alight and flip the GC on its head. It’s the longest individual time trial seen at the race since 2013 and while it isn’t quite as hilly as those tests that have featured in more recent editions, it will still create some big gaps between the top favourites.
