This year’s Vuelta a Espana will start in Burgos in central Spain with an individual time trial before ending in Santiago de Compostela three weeks later, organisers said on Thursday. Moving away from the traditional end point of Madrid, the race also features another individual time trial on the final stage, representing another shift from the usual victor’s procession towards the finish line. Five of the race’s 11 mountain stages will be held in that week, including four summit finishes.

The ‘super tuck’, a tactic of hunching over the bars while putting weight on the top tube to gain an aerodynamic advantage on descents, has become increasingly popular in recent years. “No one this time can say that they weren’t informed,” Trentin, who rides for UAE Team Emirates, told Cycling News.
