The 2022 Volta ao Algarve (English: Tour of the Algarve) was a road cycling stage race that took place between 16 and 20 February 2022 in the Algarve region of southern Portugal. The race was rated as a category 2.Pro event on the 2022 UCI ProSeries calendar, and was the 48th edition of the Volta ao Algarve.[1]

After the 2021 edition was postponed to May due to a rising number of COVID-19 cases in Portugal,[2][3] the race returned to its traditional mid-February timeslot.[4]

Teams

[edit]

10 of the 18 UCI WorldTeams, five UCI ProTeams, and ten UCI Continental teams made up the 25 teams that participated in the race.[5][6] Only five teams did not enter a full squad of seven riders; Groupama–FDJ and Trek–Segafredo each entered six riders, while Human Powered Health, Team Jumbo–Visma, and UAE Team Emirates each entered five riders. There were two non-starters, one from Cofidis and Human Powered Health each, which reduced those teams to six and four riders, respectively. In total, 165 riders started the race,[7] of which 133 finished.[8]
