Race analysis, favourites, and predictions for Sparkassen Münsterland Giro 2025

The Sparkassen Münsterland Giro, classified as 1.Pro, is one of the most important races in Germany. First held in 2006, this young race has quickly become an unmissable event for the best sprinters in the world, who see it as a great chance to win a one-day race.

 
Route

The race covers 194 km, mostly flat, which should not pose any major obstacles for a sprint finish. However, wind and rain can be decisive factors.
