Vuelta a Burgos LIVE
The major prep race for the Vuelta a Espana this year features 14 World Tour teams and a more varied (read: less climby and more time trially) course than has been the norm over the last several years.
Who might win the GC battle? This is a fairly wide-opn race with ridders who haven’t ridden sine the spring and/or coming off injury.
