Tirreno-Adriatico 2026 - Stage 1 time trial start times
Tirreno–Adriatico opens with its traditional individual time trial, an 11.5km test against the clock in San Benedetto del Tronto that sets the first general classification of the week. With a flat and fast route along the Adriatic coast, Filippo Ganna is the big favourite to take the leader's jersey. Here are the full start times for stage 1 and when the main contenders roll down the ramp.
Emiel Verstrynge of Alpecin–Premier Tech is the first rider down the start ramp at 12:40 CET, after which riders leave at one minute intervals throughout most of the afternoon. One of the early notable starters is Wout van Aert, who begins his effort at 12:46 as the first rider from Team Visma | Lease a Bike although it remains to be seen whether he will give it his all in this time trial.
Top favourite Filippo Ganna begins his effort at 15:17, while his biggest rival on paper, Ethan Hayter, starts at 15:25.
The main general classification contenders roll off the start podium at the following times: Isaac Del Toro at 13:50, Giulio Pellizzari at 14:26, Matteo Jorgenson at 15:09 and Primož Roglič at 15:14.
In total, 167 riders will take on the opening test against the clock, with Benoît Cosnefroy of UAE Team Emirates–XRG the final rider to start at 15:26 CET. The stage is expected to conclude before the finish of stage 2 of Paris–Nice later in the afternoon.
