Follow the information about the Tour of Spain 2024 with the stage result and the general classification. The 2024 Vuelta is the 79th edition of the Tour of Spain cycling race and takes place from August 17 to September 8, 2024 between Lisbon in Portugal and Madrid. Primoz Roglic is the big favorite of this edition to save his season. Aleksandr Vlasov, Daniel Felipe Martinez and Florian Lipowitz could take on the role of leader at Red Bull – BORA hansgrohe if, by chance, the Slovenian is not in good enough shape. Joatildeo Almeida, 4th in the last Tour de France, and Adam Yates are also expected. Richard Carapaz (EF Education EasyPost), the recent best climber of the Tour, could aim for the general classification, as could Antonio Tiberi (Bahrain – Victorious), 5th in the Giro last May or Ben O'Connor. Results powered by FirstCycling.com Latest updates The Irishman from the Jayco-Alula team won his first stage in a grand tour ahead of Quinten Hermans and Max Poole. The two other big winners of the breakaway were Guillaume Martin and George Bennett, who regained almost 3 minutes and a half on Roglic and more than four minutes on O'Connor. The leader of the general classification was in fact dropped on the last climb by an attack from Primoz Roglic and conceded 37 seconds on the line to the Slovenian. Enric Mas also made up time on the Australian, as did David Gaudu and Mikel Landa, who managed to keep up with Roglic's attack. Find the full stage rankings above. The 30 leading men begin the last climb of the day. The slowest in the sprint should take advantage of the puerto Cruxeiras (3rd category 2.9 km at 8.9%) to make the difference. The pursuers finally came to an agreement in the second stage of the race and the Belgian's minute lead melted into a few kilometers. Behind Movistar accelerated in the peloton to protect itself from a return of Bennett on the podium of the general. The rider from the Alpecin – Deceuninck team is doing a hell of a number one lead, still one minute ahead of the rest of the breakaway. The peloton is at 6'25. After a very fast start to the race, one man is in the lead, with a 40-second lead over a large breakaway of 36 riders. Guillaume Martin is notably in this group. The peloton is at 4'46 behind. Already 40 km covered while the race hour has not yet been reached. For the moment Marco Frigo is in the lead but with only a 20 second lead. Today's stage, despite four climbs, does not seem difficult enough to see major maneuvers among the favorites. However, be careful for the Decathlon-AG2R not to have a rider placed to the general take the breakaway, as O'Connor had done during the 6th stage. After Wout Van Aert's victory yesterday in Baiona, the Belgian could well repeat this Wednesday on the 11th stage of the Vuelta. Four climbs are indeed on the programme over the 166 km, but the passes are less difficult than yesterday and the stage profile is even more suited to the rider qualities of Visma | Lease a Bike.
