Stage 6 is a medium-mountain profile with four categorized climbs (including Puerto de la Serratella: 14 km at 3.8%; Col de la Bandereta: 4.6 km at 6.7%) and ~3,100m of elevation, finishing on a flat run-in to Castellón. This 'classics finish' profile – hard mountain section then descent into a flat sprint – is Wout van Aert's specialty. He is also flagged as favourite for Stage 8 (similar profile). Procyclingstats implies typically 15–25% win probability for individual top classics riders in such stage types.
