Andalucia rider Jesus Rosendo spent most of the day on a solo break. After being away for 144 km he was caught with 18 to go. This picture copyright Unipublic. | ||||||
With the sprinters' teams controlling things today, Valverde had an easier time of it. This picture copyright Unipublic. | ||||||
Daniele Bennati (far right in Liquigas kit) is still looking for a stage win but Greipel, in the green points jersey and looking over at Bennati, is really having a good Vuelta. | ||||||
A really good Vuelta. | ||||||
There are still 2 more high mountain stages and a time trial left to go with the top 6 riders within 2 minutes of each other. Still Valverde is looking ever more likely to be wearing gold in Madrid. | ||||||
