Stage 19
Logroño – Alto de Moncalvillo 173.2 km
Very comforting to be back on an uphill finish.
Estimated finish time: 17:20-17:40 CEST
Alto guy of the Day: Primož Roglič
Time to show who’s boss. Although I suspect the punks in the breakaway will be allowed to get it.

Vitoria Gasteiz – Maeztu.Parque Natural de Izki 178.3km
Pretty mild for a day in the Basque Country.

Izki business of the Day: Eddie Dunbar
Multiple stage wins seems to be the theme of this Vuelta.

Stage 17
Monumento Juan de Castillo.Arnuero – Santander 141.5 km
“Medium mountain”. More like “sprint stage”, amirite?
Estimated finish time: 17:20-17:40 CEST
Cantabrian of the Day: Kasper Asgreen
Picked his name out of a hat.

Stage 16
Luanco – Lagos de Covadonga 181.5 km
If the Tour has Alpe d’Huez as its signature climb, the Vuelta has Lagos de Covadonga.
Estimated finish time:17:20-17:40 CEST
Lake dude of the Day: Enric Mas
No pressure Enric but the home crowd wants a Spanish winner here and I don’t think Pedro has another one in him.
