12.45 Hello and welcome to our Live broadcast of the fifth stage of the Giro del Dafinato 2022.

Hello and welcome to the Live broadcast of the fifth stage of the Giro del Dauphiné 2022. Thizy-les-Bourgs ›Chaintré of 162.3 kilometers is planned today.

A rough course, with four GPMs to tackle: the first, in the third category, is the Col des Ecorbans (4.2 kilometers at 5.6%), followed by the Côte de Dun, the most demanding. 4.7 hard km at 7% average gradient, including a last ramp where 15% will be reached. The stage is divided into two: after these ascents in fact a very long flat stretch, while on the final the other two climbs (both of the fourth category). Col du Bois Clair and Côte de Vergisson (1.7 kilometers at an average gradient of 4.8%), with the last crest 14 kilometers from the finish.

Most likely, as seen in the first few days, it should be sprint, even if restricted, with pure sprinters who should lose contact on the climbs. But watch out for escapes from afar again.

The big favorite is definitely Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma): the leader of the general classification goes in search of redemption after the double mockery between Tuesday and Wednesday (always second). Watch out for the British Ethan Hayter (Ineos Grenadiers).

The stage will start at 12.45. We wish you a lot of fun with our textual Direct Live.
