Vuelta a España LIVE – Podium Cafe

Stage 6

Jerez de la Frontera – Yunquera 185.5 km

Classic hilly Vuelta day that, believe it or not, starts inside an actual Carrefour supermarket.

Estimated finish time:17:15-17:45 CEST

Mystery shopper of the Day: Lorenzo Rota

If nothing else Lidl-Trek and Intermarche should be inspired to start fast and get out of there in a hurry and it might just land them in the winning breakaway.

Stage 3

Lousa Castelo Blanco 191.2 km

A second chance for sprinters, what kind of wacky Vuelta is this? They couldn’t find a 17% finishing climb in Portugal?

Estimated finish time:17:15-17:45 CEST

Not españan of the Day: Wout van Aert

Winning in red maybe?
