How this race tends to play out

Four laps of a short, rolling circuit for A/B and three for C/D, on almost entirely smooth tarmac. Nothing here rewards a specialist: it is a fast, draft-heavy scratch race where aerodynamics dominate and the climbing is too shallow to pay for a lightweight build.

Race details from the published round guide.
