DIRECT. Vuelta 2021: the breakaway maintains its lead over the peloton before attacking the last difficulty – franceinfo

A short stage but a hellish finale. Here is what awaits the riders of the Tour of Spain on Wednesday 25 August, between Antequera and Valdepeñas de Jaén. On this 11th stage (133.6 km), the first 115 kilometers will offer a hilly course but without major difficulty. Quite the opposite of the final with the Puerto de Locubin (8.8 km, at 5%) as a starter and especially the main course: Valdepeñas from Jaén. A climb of barely a kilometer, but with ramps over 20%. For his first day in the red jersey, Odd Christian Eiking (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert Matériaux) will have a lot to do. Follow the race live with commentary.
