Overview

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2019 Vuelta a España beginsꩵ in Torrevieja on Saturday August 23 and finishes in Madrid on Se💃ptember 15.

The route, unveiled in a ceremony in Alicante in December, sees the number of summit finishes cut back a touch from nine to eight, but it's still a moun♛tainous route that sticks with the Vuelta’s recent tr༒aditions.

Some 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:brutally steep climbs have been sought out for the occasion, with the 4km Mas de la Costa and the painfully steep Los Machucos returning to the route. Andoꦑrra is also back on the menu and will host a short but punchy stage to bring week one to a close. The 100-kilometre route comprises five climbs and will ensure some gaps in the overall classi💝fication.

There will be just over 60 kilometres against the clock, with a 24km team time trial in Torrevieja opening the race and a 36.1km in🔥dividual chrono in Pau at the start of the second week.

The final week of action gives the sprinters more opportunities to find glory, along with two important mountaꦺin stages in the Sierras around Madrid, before the last stage into ♏the Spanish capital.

• Race preview: Opportunity knocks at Vuelta a España 2019

In the absence of 2018 champion Simon Yates, the 2019 Vuelta looks wide open, with a range of candidates and a sense anything can happen. 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nairo Quintana and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alejandro Valverde are two of three former winners on the start line - alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabio Aru (UAE Team Emirates) - and head up a Movistar team without Giro d'Italia champion Richard Carapaz, who was 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:ruled out through injury just 48 hours before the start of the race.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Primoz Roglic, third at the Giro, is very much among the favourites, and his 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jumbo-Visma team have a credible alternative in 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Steven Kruijswijk, who was third at the Tour de France.

Movistar and Jumbo-Visma seem the strongest teams in the race, but elsewhere are a number of interesting challengers, including Colombians 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miguel Angel Lopez (Astana), 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Chaves (Mitchelton-Scott), and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Rigoberto Uran (EF Education First). Team Ineos leadership is shared between 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Wout Poels and 24-year-old 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tao Geoghegan Hart, while two-time top-10 finisher 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Wilco Kelderman leads Sunweb and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Rafal Majka leads Bora-Hansgrohe.
