00:00 Look at that pace, 51.

00:07 That is absolutely insane.

00:12 Welcome to stage three of Love World to Femenina.

00:15 Another flat outing in prospect today between Elche de la Sierra and La Roda.

00:20 Mariana Vaz is our race leader, meaning that she has now worn the leader's jersey at all

00:24 three Grand Tours.

00:25 Although the Dutch superstar narrowly missed out on victory yesterday, being pipped to

00:29 the line by Charlotte Acole.

00:31 I'm very, very happy and proud of how the team rode, how they brought me into the final

00:38 safely.

00:39 We were trying to go for the stage victory, but of course it's really nice to keep the

00:44 jersey in the team.

00:46 The two compatriots may well get another opportunity to duke it out this afternoon.

00:51 Everybody is fresh and everybody is very motivated and excited to go for the stage win.

00:57 The wind is also set to be a major factor in this third stage, with a good chance of

01:00 echelons on the exposed roads of south-eastern Spain.

01:04 The GC teams will have to keep a very close eye on their leaders.

01:10 Well it turned out to be a day of absolute crosswind chaos.

01:14 Unfortunately, most of the action happened before the cameras started rolling.

01:17 The peloton ripping along almost half an hour ahead of schedule and split into three main

01:22 groups as the live pictures began with only around 25k to go.

01:26 Most of the main favourites were in the front group, including Vos, Chloe Diger, Kassia

01:31 Nueva Edoma, Demi Follering, Mavi Garcia and Annemiek van Vleuten, who had a little bit

01:35 of trouble getting hold of that bidon.

01:40 Sylvia Persica was perhaps the biggest name in the second group, also containing the Queen

01:44 of the Mountains, Jade Vielle, but no points on offer today for the Frenchwoman.

01:49 And back in the third group, the entire Trek-Segafredo team, including their leader, Gaia Raiolini,

01:54 Amanda Spratt and Lizzie Dignan, the American outfit set to lose a lot of time.

01:59 The front group soon reached the intermediate sprint, where Vos pocketed another six seconds

02:03 to tighten her grip on the red jersey, Rihanna Marcus and Leanne Lippert in second and third.

02:09 The bad news for Vos was that she hadn't managed to shake off Cole, her main rival, for the

02:13 sprint.

02:14 Look at that.

02:15 Look at that pace.

02:16 51.1 kilometres an hour.

02:17 That is, that is absolutely insane.

02:18 The gap to the second group growing out to around a minute as the favourites set themselves

02:29 for another sprint.

02:31 Would it be a double for Cole or could Vos complete her hat trick of Grand Tour stage

02:35 wins?

02:38 This is that first slight left-hand turn and then we're moving to the front.

02:42 Dorma is doing some work.

02:44 We have Dignan all the way on the outside, through the middle in red, Mariana Vos, in

02:49 green, Charlotte Cole.

02:50 Mariana Vos is going to try the other side.

02:52 Emma Norsgaard is going for the sprint after her collarbone fracture.

02:56 And now it's a sprint yet again between Mariana Vos and Charlotte Cole.

03:00 Is Mariana Vos going to beat Charlotte Cole on the line today?

03:03 It looks like she does.

03:04 What a magnificent win by Mariana Vos.

03:10 A sensational sprint for Mariana Vos to take her first individual win of the season, seeing

03:15 off Cole and Dijkert to increase her overall lead.

03:18 The 35-year-old now has a maiden Vuelta stage win to go with her two victories at last year's

03:22 inaugural Tour de France Femme and her 32 stages at the Giro d'Italia Donne.

03:28 It's a 247th career win for the Queen of Cycling.

03:33 In the beginning it was quite relaxed actually because there was not much going on and then

03:38 suddenly you need to switch on and get ready for the action and from then on actually it

03:45 was a constant high-speed race and trying to stay in the first echelon.

03:51 I'm very thankful to my team and grateful that they brought me in this position and

03:57 I'm very happy I could finish it off in the final.

04:01 The same top three as yesterday but not in the same order.

04:04 Vos, Cole and Dijkert, who is clearly on form, an impressive fourth place for Clara Caponi,

04:09 with Emma Noorskaard up in fifth only two months after she broke her collarbone at Strade

04:13 Bianche.

04:14 Vos now leads by 13 seconds from Dijkert and 14 from her team-mate Marcus.

04:19 In fact there are still four Jumbo Visma riders in the top five, followed by two from Canyon

04:23 SRAM and three from Movistar.

04:26 Vos also takes over the lead in the points classification, although her nearest challenger

04:29 Cole will continue to wear the green jersey in Thursday's fourth stage.

04:34 No mountains action today so Jad Vial still has the polka dot jersey ahead of Alba Teruel.

04:41 Stage four will be a bit lumpier with a late climb that could prove too much for the sprinters.

04:45 Do join us again tomorrow to see how it all unfolds and thanks for watching.
