When the general director of La Vuelta Javier Guillén He said in the run-up to the MD race that he was confident the race would last until the end, he didn’t know the race would have such an exciting outcome as it did this year. And with the final three stages remaining, almost everything is still undecided, with two ‘first’ difficult mountain stages and a total of nine mountain passes today and tomorrow and a 24-kilometre time trial the day after. road to Madrid which can complete the passage of the sentence if necessary.
But, before the CRI, where a priori Primoz Roglic is superior, the survivors of the race must face two very difficult and amazing days for the fans. The Australian Bin O’Connor He only has a five second margin at the front of the general classification Roglic. Logic says that the Head of Decathlon AG2R The red jersey must be gone now that the day of Lakes of Covadonga He was saved by a miracle, but no one expected O’Connor to extend his hegemony further and so far he had defended himself very well.

But the leader of the Movistar Team must also keep an eye on a Richard Carapaz who is on his heels.
Waiting for what will happen tomorrow in a stage with seven scoring climbs and a magical finish in PWhite icon (1st)now the battle has all the makings of an epic, with a journey of 173 kilometers and the first ascent of Puerto de Pradilla (3rd) and the outcome in Alto de Moncalvillo (1st, 8.6 km at 8.9% and 16% ramp). A playing field that many cyclists already know after the 2020 climb, where Primoz Roglic won by a 13-second margin Richard Carapaza distinction that would give the Slovenian the reins of La Vuelta.
