Tobias Andresen from DSM-Firmenich Team, who finished the Bodrum-Kuşadası stage in first place, carried the Turquoise Jersey throughout the stage.

TODAY IS THE STAGE THAT WILL DETERMINE THE FATE OF THE TOUR
The 59th Presidential Turkey Cycling Tour will continue tomorrow with the 160.1 kilometer Kuşadası-Manisa (Spil Mountain) climbing stage. As in previous years, it is expected that the athlete who wins this stage, called the "Queen Stage", will largely guarantee the 2024 championship. All eyes are on the hill climbers for the climbing stage, which sprinter cyclists do not like very much.
