UAE Tour 2023 Route stage 2: Khalifa Port – TTT

UAE Tour 2023 Tuesday 21 February - The 2nd stage of the UAE Tour is a team time trial, which is played out on a flat and fast course in Khalifa Port. The route is 17.2 kilometres long.

The inaugural edition - in 2019 - of the UAE Tour kicked off with a TTT. This is the second time trial for teams in the history of the race. Jumbo-Visma took the win in 2019 ahead of Sunweb (now DSM) and Bahrain-Merida (now Bahrain-Victorious).

The race is entirely played out on an exposed route that's surrounded by terminals. It is a fairly straightforward affair with two U-turns. The pace will be high since the route is as flat as can be.

Khalifa Port is strategically located between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. It's a deepwater port and the main hub of the UAE's container traffic.
