Only on the third day of the 2024 Giro d’Italia do the sprinters seem to get their first chance. Today the peloton heads south towards Fossana in a stage of 166 kilometers. Can Olav Kooij, who fell yesterday, strike with his very first chance in a grand tour?

From Biella, at the foot of Oropa, the teams and riders travel by bus to Novara, the starting point of stage three, by an hour’s bus ride. From here a relatively flat ride of 166 kilometers begins. A total of 831 meters of elevation are conquered. With many top sprinters such as Olav Kooij, Tim Merlier, Fabio Jakobsen and Jonathan Milan at the start, there is a good chance that we will see the first bunch sprint of the Tour of Italy today.

Start: 1:10 p.m
Finish: between 5:05 PM and 5:20 PM
