Men's Road Cycling UCI World Tour 2022 (La Vuelta Ciclista a España)


Recommended Posts

Simon Yates, 5th in the GC, didn't start today: positive COVID-19 test and he was getting sick.

 

Pavel Sivakov, 9th in the GC, didn't start today neither: positive COVID-19 test, no word on whether or not he's actually getting sick.

 

Three riders from Kern-Pharma didn't start today due to positive tests. Again, no word on whether or not they're actually sick.

 

Ugh.

And Alaphilippe gone too. This GT is really turning into one of the most anticlimactic ever :nopompom:

Another fall...I really hope he'll be alright. I think this Vuelta for him was entirely meant to help Evenepoel and/or get back in shape towards Wollongong, judging by his results, but this won't help at all.

 

Any news on injuries yet?

Which means today most likely nothing will happen...nobody is going for an early attack with that long climb tomorrow. And with tomorrow's profile, I assume the organizers wanted to have 148km of nothing, followed by everything again happening in the last 2km?

 

Where the Vuelta has often been the best of the three GT's, this year's it is by far the most awful in terms of the course and stage profiles. Terrible.

At least we’re not in for three weeks of Extremadura, but on the sports side it hasn’t been anywhere exciting for me.

Well, turned out to be not such a boring day after all.  :clap:
