True to its philosophy, the Spanish round promises intense emotions, with a fun route full of surprises, once again with the cream of the crop. 184 runners will star in La Vuelta’s caravan, led by 18 teams on the World Tour –among them Movistar–, to which we must add Alpecin-Fenix and Arkéahead of classification UCI ProTeam 2021and the three invited Spanish squads: Euskaltel-Euskadi, Kern Pharma and Burgos-BH.
All eyes are on the Slovenianor Primoz Roglic. The leader of Jumbo-Visma will seek to match the record of four victories held by caround Béjar Roberto Heras, but if he achieves victory this year he will make history by achieving four wins in a row. Well backed up, the only question surrounding the former ski jumper is his fitness after crashing out of the Tour.
There are several candidates for the final podium in Madrid, such as the Australian Hindley, winner of the Giro 2022; the portuguese Almeidathe British Simon Yate, winner of the Vuelta in 2018; the australian Haig, 3rd in 2021; the Ecuadorian Carapace, 2nd in the 2022 Tour and in the 2020 Vuelta; the colombianor ‘Superman’ Lopez, after disbanding last year; the French ala philippe in search of his best form or the Belgian Evenepoellooking to prove the ‘Belgian cannibal can perform in a three-week race.
In Spanish key, Enrique More will be looking for his best performance since the Tour’s disappointment, after coming 2nd in 2018 and 2021, with the emotional side of enjoying the last chance to try to Valverde and with the incentive to see how far the two pearls of Spanish cycling can go: Juan Ayuso and Carlos Rodriguez, without forgetting Carlos Canal and Juan Pedro Lopez.
