Rides on Full Stage #14 of Vuelta a Espana 2015 HD (Part 7 of 13)

  • 8 years ago
At the top of the 3rd category Estaca de Trueba (Km 118), the five, with Cherel in front, were leading the peloton by eight minutes. At the bottom of the 1st category Puerto del Escudo, the gap reached 10 minutes. Cherel was again first at the top, which the Astana-led bunch reached nine minutes later. Quintero picked three seconds of bonification at the sprint at the foot of the last climb.

The battle for the overall lead also started three kilometers from the finish when red jersey holder Fabio Aru surged, Quintana on his heels. But the Italian had probably moved a little bit too early as he saw Joaquim Rodriguez (Katusha), Rafal Majka (Tinkoff-Saxo), Esteban Chaves (Orica-Greenedge) and Domenico Pozzovivo (aG2R) return. Rodriguez and Quintana then attacked in the finale to collect a few seconds. Tom Dumoulin, who finished 26 seconds behind Quintana with Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) and Daniel Moreno (Katusha) were the only leading favorites in relative trouble in the finale.
