How this stage was measured
The course comes from the official Komoot tour embedded on the organiser’s stage page, not from a route planner joining towns. VeloWorkout measures 173.7 km against the 174.0 km the roadbook prints, and 2,658 m of climbing against a published 2,639 m. Elevation is carried by the official track itself.
This stage was ABANDONED mid-race: a hailstorm neutralised it and it was cancelled before Font-Romeu, so no result stands. The route below is the one that was planned. Sources disagree on distance: official 174.0 km, PCS 174.0 km, Wikipedia 166.7 km. The official roadbook figure is used here. La Vuelta publishes no official climbing total; 2639 m is ProCyclingStats' figure and the official Komoot track gives 2660 m.
