McLaren Vale - Old Willunga Hill 151.5 km

The now classic showdown on Old Willunga is looking even less predictable than it did before the race went over the Corkscrew (with some included crashage) to put some unexpected names at the front of the GC. Can Sky and Geraint Thomas defend the GC lead and pull off the first stage race win (of many?) of the season?

Climbing stage, on-form spaniard, you do the math. Can he hold off Thomas for the general classification though or will Movistar come up just short once more?
