2022 Tour de Suisse - STAGE 5 Preview & Predictions


Stage 4 Review

Daryl Impey took a magnificent win from a reduced sprint in front of Michael Matthews. Soren Kragh Andersen completed the podium. Alberto Bettiol could not do better than 4th after his team put in a big effort in the last climb.


Stage 5 Preview








This 193.3 km course stage is well designed for a break-away win unless the likes of Matthews, Sagan and Kristoff have other thoughts and would want to seize their last chance of winning. The last remaining races are two mighty mountain stage and the closing time-trial.





Quinn Simmons will again try to set the break-away to get those mountain points. this time, the break-away might be larger with stronger riders as the chance for a break-away stage win is more than possible. They will however need to cooperate open a respectable lead before the first  climb of the day.


Predictions 

★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ : Tom Pidcock - he has the full backing of his team who would want to set him up again for his last shot at a stage that suits him

★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ : Stephano Oldani - He took a very convincing win from the break-away in the Giro, he will have the freedom to get into the Break-away.

★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ : Sylvain Moniquet - Another of the main break-away riders of last giro. he packs a powerful punch that could be in his favour on the uphill finish, 

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ : Thomas De Gendt - He has rolled back the years by taking a stage in the Giro. After Sagan and Impey is it going to happen again?
