A breakaway day heading into the rest day
With the rest day looming and a few rolling third-category climbs along the way, this is a classic day for GC teams to let the break go. The flat run-in to Córdoba could end in either a solo win or a group sprint.
Finishing in Córdoba
Córdoba, with its UNESCO-listed Mosque-Cathedral, is one of the most beautiful finish towns of this Vuelta — a fitting backdrop for the last breakaway party before the brutal final week.
