The Volta ao Algarve is set for major changes in 2025, with the traditionally decisive Malhão summit finish road stage replaced with a last-day uphill time trial on the same climb.
The Volta ao Algarve is one of Europe's best-known early-season stage races, frequently used by Classics and stage racing specialists alike to polish their form on the demanding terrain in southern Portugal. Last year Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) won overall for a record-equalling third time.
