00:00 Anticipation as Lauelter returns to an old favourite, the Tourette de Cati wall awaits
00:11 its seventh appearance, Julien Alaphilippe triumphed the last time in 2017.
00:23 Pseudo-quick-step and Jumbo-Visma in focus, no thoughts of red, only putting time on rivals
00:28 or limiting losses.
00:31 As the GC guys we more think about staying on the bike and not getting out of the race,
00:35 so it's more about how to kind of gain time without losing too much energy and yeah we
00:40 have to be attentive and try to not lose any time and just stay out of trouble.
00:46 I like this steep climb so I'm really looking forward to the climb today and hopefully I
00:51 have good legs and then we'll see.
00:53 Do you want to be ahead of Remco before the time trial?
00:57 Of course it's always better to be ahead than behind so yeah that would be nice.
01:03 Groupama FDJ will try and retain Lennie Martinez's leaders jersey.
01:08 We're not in a position like Pseudo-quick-step or Jumbo-Visma to give up the jersey, we want
01:13 to keep it so we're going to fight until the end.
01:16 We know we're going to be attacked, we know it's going to be tough.
01:20 There are a lot of riders in the top ten who don't necessarily do the GC at 100% and
01:26 they know they're going to be able to take the jersey so we're expecting a very tough
01:29 race but we're going to fight until the end.
01:33 Many within the peloton knew the route well, teams also using it for their Vuelta preparations,
01:38 however the true local, Juan Ayuso.
01:41 December and January everybody comes here, everybody trains here, everybody knows the
01:45 roads but still it's that extra motivation that I have that I think nobody else has.
01:52 168km on a route with nearly 4000m of climbing, one category 3, three cat 2s, then the final
02:00 category 1 ascent at an average of 11%.
02:04 Not a day for the faint-hearted.
02:06 What I said the other day, the main objective of the race is to get the race because we're
02:17 trying to reach the finish line and if we can't we can split the points.
02:23 The plan changed by the time they took to the road, rather than challenge himself, the
02:27 Argentine-employed teammate Thomas de Gendt, pushing and increasing his advantage ahead
02:32 of 29 riders.
02:34 Within that grouping, Christian Rodriguez of Arkea Samsek taking the virtual lead of
02:38 La Vuelta, nearly five minutes clear of the red jersey peloton.
02:44 The group following the solo leader had boasted some potential stage winners.
02:49 Roman Bardet, Damiano Caruso and former world champion Rui Costa had already been active
02:55 during the week, but would they be allowed to go for the stage honours by the peloton?
03:01 The chasing group rolling along around 37km/h and at least 90km from the finish, reaching
03:08 the foot of the Puerto Bene Falim, the Belgian de Gendt holding 90 seconds and nearly five
03:15 minutes over the main group.
03:17 Robert Hesink of Guillembo-Visma leading on the Groupama FTG train, aiming to keep Lenny
03:23 Martinez in red.
03:25 De Gendt rode alone soon enough, joined by Rodriguez, Javier Romo, Teberi and Rui Costa.
03:33 The original soloist de Gendt fell back with teammates into the counter-attacking group.
03:37 The Belgian joining Lotto Destiny Stage 2 winner Andries Kroon in company of Sylvain
03:42 Moneke and Lennart van Eertveldt.
03:48 After a long descent of fantastic five, we're heading for the penultimate climb of the day,
03:52 65km still to go of the Puerto de Carasqueta.
03:56 Three men tried to bridge the gap though, Kroon, Kenny Ellison and Nicolas Prodom.
04:04 A trio successful in making it an eight-strong breakaway.
04:08 Guillembo-Visma pushing the peloton pace though, three minutes, 30 down.
04:13 Up to the summit and two leading groups continue to attack and counter.
04:18 Another Cepevela defender, Lotto Destiny's Sylvain Moneke, moved with Darmiano Cruso
04:24 and Wele Agosper, oh yeah, Lascano and Rui Costa able to join them.
04:31 The only constant was constant change, yet the advantage falling, the peloton with a
04:36 gap around two minutes, 30.
04:39 Rui Costa would later bemoan the break, weren't able to contest the win.
04:43 As expected, the chase group swallowed up, just 30 seconds in hand come the foot of the
04:48 final climb.
04:58 Costa and Lascano are caught, they're onto that steep section there where you can see
05:03 just how difficult this climb is.
05:06 They're onto these gradients that really rear up as Remco Evenepoel is isolated.
05:13 He puts it into a lower gear and he makes a seated acceleration and it's now tracked
05:19 by three riders from Guillembo-Visma.
05:22 They're in total control and here goes Kuss.
05:25 Kuss makes a strike for glory and the stage with it, the red jersey is on offer, it's
05:31 up for grabs.
05:32 He takes a look over his left hand shoulder and there's no reaction from behind.
05:41 Lenny Martinez finally distance and fast losing step with the rest.
05:45 No wonder on such a gruelling climb, at times gradients of 20%.
05:52 Seb Kuss on route to the Mayo Rojo and the tactic to isolate Remco worked to a tee.
05:57 The red devil surrounded Roglic and Winograd on his shoulders.
06:03 Local riders Marc Soler, Ayuso and Enric Mas in contention but the GC giants in tow, one
06:10 from five for the stage win.
06:13 Look at this group here, he's the fastest, this climb is suited perfectly to Primoz Roglic.
06:23 They round this left hand corner with 300 meters to go and the big punch comes from
06:28 Remco Evenepoel.
06:29 He's striking, he's trying to go for his second stage victory here in Lavuelta and
06:34 trying to respond is Primoz Roglic.
06:37 The three time winner of the overall classification is coming into Choret de Kati and he's coming
06:42 for his first stage victory this year in Lavuelta.
06:45 Primoz Roglic with total domination, arms aloft, he kisses the air, he takes the stage
06:51 victory here in Choret de Kati and with it the 10 bonus seconds to Primoz Roglic.
07:03 Jumbo Visma flexing their muscles in a collective masterclass.
07:08 The goal for Madrid, unlikely Kus and Red, for now the Superdome mystique getting his
07:13 rewards for all his selfless work.
07:15 Meanwhile Roglic gambled and won as he secured another Vuelta stage win.
07:21 Nice, now it's even more relaxed, it was already nice.
07:29 But most of all I'm happy that I recovered after the crash.
07:36 It's enjoying now and we go day by day.
07:38 How many leaders, how many GC riders?
07:40 At least three now, no?
07:42 But maybe still someone coming.
07:44 Thank you.
07:45 Cheers.
07:46 Roglic sprinting to glory, an 11th Vuelta stage win.
07:54 The three time overall winner beating defending champion Remco Evenpoel to the line.
07:59 Roglic joked there were now three leaders for Jumbo as Sepp Kuss adorned the Mayo Rojo.
08:05 The American with 43 seconds on Marc Soler, Martinez a minute back as he bids a farewell
08:10 to the leader's jersey.
08:12 Remco Roglic and Viragard into the top ten, just 11 seconds between them.
08:17 No major changes as Caden Groves is safe in green, more than double the points of Andrea
08:22 Vandramme.
08:24 Eduardo Superbera sat back but remains king of the mountain on 21 points.
08:30 Evenpoel though just a point behind Jesus Herrada up to third.
08:36 Losing the red jersey but Lennie Martinez did hang on as the current best young rider.
08:41 He'll be in white tomorrow, 91 seconds on Remco Evenpoel.
08:48 The defending champion keeping ahead but Jumbo Visma appear to have him where they want him.
08:55 Another climbing day tomorrow with an uphill finish but not as demanding in terms of gradients
08:59 if very twisty.
09:00 The weather also could play its part once again.
09:04 The final stage before the first rest day, it could be explosive.
