Figueira Champions Classic 2023 – São Pedro – Figueira da Foz : 190 km
The Figueira Champions Classic is a Portuguese one-day race and a brand-new addition to the European calendar for the 2023 season. The race’s first edition coincides with the 250th anniversary of Figueira da Foz, a city on Portugal’s western coast which established itself as one of the country’s most important ports during the 18th and 19th centuries. The race’s committee created the Figueira Champions Classic in order to celebrate the history of their great city and share it with the rest of the world. While the professional race will take place over just a single day – February 12th – the Figueira Champions Classic will encompass a whole weekend with a gran fondo open to amateurs set to take place on February 11th. Carrying a 1.1 ranking, it’s unlikely that the race will attract many of the sport’s biggest names; though, taking place in early February, it could offer a handful a golden opportunity to kickstart their seasons in sunny Portugal.
