This year's edition of Arctic Race of Norway features an tough uphill finish on stage three which will go a long way to deciding GC, mixed in with tricky sprint stages that could turn into days for the opportunists.

The German hills give hope to the attackers and puncheurs at Adac Cyclassics as they look to upset the odds but the last few years have shown that the race normally ends in some kind of sprint.

With a mix of cobbles, sprint stages, and climbs - the Renewi Tour often sees some exciting and aggressive racing which lends itself to the skillset of the classics experts within the peloton.

The attitude of the peloton will decide how the stages pan out at the Deutschland Tour, with there being a variety of rolling terrain throughout the week which will tempt those attackers.

Some rolling terrain and grippy roads can make for harder than expected days in the saddle with a parcours that could entice attacks over the five stages.
