00:00Well, for the second time in history, Portugal hosts the Grand Salida of La Vuelta a Espana.
00:07What happened with Primoz?
00:09Well, we came from the hotel. I don't know what happened. We are waiting for him too.
00:14And where were you when your colleagues were here?
00:18Not here, yeah. A bit later.
00:21Actually...
00:22You were lost?
00:23No, I was told that it's a date. And then, yes, I was still waiting at the hotel.
00:30What happened to Primoz?
00:38I knew the split was good, so I just had to hold on and give everything I had.
00:42It was just full from the start.
00:45The time is still green. He takes two seconds to the good of Vacek.
00:49Wout van Aert takes third spot. It's McNulty who wins the stage.
00:55Wout van Aert starts to strike. It's going to be close.
00:58And it's Hayden Groves who takes his fifth stage victory in La Vuelta a Espana.
01:05Today I knew that finishing in the first three meant the red jersey.
01:09So, after all, it's a good day.
01:15It's going to be close on the line. Wout van Aert takes the victory in the red jersey.
01:19For me, it will be really hard to keep the jersey, so I try to enjoy it one more time.
01:27Red jersey will change shoulders.
01:31It's going to be close on the line. And it's Primoz Roglic, his 13th Vuelta a Espana stage victory.
01:38I always say, you never know when it's the last one, so just enjoy it.
01:49Here's Wout van Aert in the green jersey, coming in, and it's like a bull has been unleashed.
01:53It's going to be a throw to the line.
01:56Early result.
01:59Unbelievable. I still don't believe it.
02:07Could stage six be the decisive day?
02:12Ben O'Connor.
02:13Could stage six be the decisive day?
02:18Ben O'Connor, he's going to join that elusive club of winning a stage in each and every Grand Tour.
02:25This has been a historic day, and that has been a magical performance.
02:30It's going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, maybe, so I'm going to enjoy every moment.
02:44Red jersey
02:51Oh, and Groves is down, and he looked over his left-hand shoulder.
02:56Wout van Aert in the green jersey is coming to the line, and he takes his second stage victory in La Vuelta a Espana.
03:07It's been aggressive and active from the very beginning.
03:11Roglic kicks once more.
03:14It's Roglic who's got the upper hand.
03:16He comes to the finish at the top of this climb, and here comes the red jersey.
03:20He loses 46 seconds to Primoz Roglic.
03:26An attack, 58.2 kilometers to go, and it's Adam Yates who is victorious on stage nine.
03:34I'm just so happy I could finally win another Grand Tour stage.
03:37Tiberius lost that white jersey. Florian Lippovitz moves into the white jersey.
03:43I didn't expect to ride for the white jersey. We'll see what will be coming in the next week.
03:52A stage that hasn't stopped since kilometer zero.
03:58Wout van Aert is going to make it three victories in this year's Vuelta a Espana.
04:07Roglic is moving clear with Enric Mas.
04:12There goes the attack, Eddie Dunbar.
04:14He tries to go early.
04:16The Irishman of Jaco Alula finally now wins a Grand Tour stage.
04:21I have an incredible group of family and friends in the team.
04:24It's been a long time coming, but just to repay all of them today, it means a lot.
04:30Carlos Rodriguez now moves into the white jersey as the best young rider.
04:33Having the white jersey is an honor.
04:36I have to be happy and with confidence for what's coming in the next stage.
04:43Pablo Castrillo goes under the 10-kilometer-to-go marker.
04:48The wildcard team is going to have their victory.
04:52Pablo Castrillo, the 23-year-old on Grand Tour debut, is a Grand Tour stage winner.
05:04At the end of today's stage, Wout van Aert is going to be the leader in the King of the Mountains competition.
05:10Oh, crash, crash with one of the riders.
05:13Jay Vine is back on his feet.
05:16This is McNulty, who has just been helped.
05:19We're seeing a bit of a gap there.
05:21Smith accelerating.
05:23There's only Michael Woods who can follow.
05:25And so they all feel like Red Bull Bora Hansgrohe.
05:28They're the strongest team here.
05:34A wonderful performance.
05:36Mike Woods, the Canadian champion, wins stage 13.
05:41Thanks, boys.
05:43Wout van Aert is now the new leader in the King of the Mountains competition.
05:46He said he wasn't focusing on this jersey.
05:49Let's see how that might change over the next week or so.
05:53It's Grose versus Van Aert.
05:55Grose versus Van Aert.
05:57Who's going to get the upper hand?
05:59Van Aert in the green jersey.
06:01It's going to be close on the line.
06:03Oh, Caden Grose gets the better of Wout van Aert.
06:15It's Pablo Castrillo who says,
06:17thanks very much, lads, for the ride.
06:19I'm off in pursuit of my second Vuelta stage victory.
06:24Ben O'Connor is fighting tooth and nail to keep this red jersey.
06:30This has been absolutely sensational.
06:33A performance of a lifetime.
06:35Pablo Castrillo is a two-time Grand Tour stage winner.
06:39After the first victory, it's unbelievable,
06:42but the second one is something to dream.
06:49It's Wout van Aert in the green jersey
06:51who wants to try and take another 10 points.
06:54Big crash, one rider down, two riders down.
06:57Wout van Aert is also caught up.
06:59This is incredibly, incredibly painful for Wout van Aert.
07:04And one bike length opens up to Ben O'Connor.
07:07He starts to struggle.
07:09And on this mythical climb,
07:11Marc Soler is victorious on stage 16
07:14to the Lagos de Covadonga.
07:173.54 is their time.
07:19Stop the clock and start counting.
07:21Is it going to be enough?
07:23He comes to the line.
07:25Ben O'Connor survives on the Lagos de Covadonga
07:27and remains in the red jersey
07:29by just five seconds to Primoz Roglic.
07:31I still have the jersey,
07:33so I've just got to enjoy it to the max
07:35because I'm not sure I'll be having it in Madrid.
07:39Tomorrow, on the start line,
07:41you will be sharing the front line
07:43with two other Australians.
07:45It's kind of cool to see us fighting off at the front.
07:52Stage victory number seven
07:54for the green jersey, Caden Groves.
07:59Congratulations, boys. Thank you.
08:01It was my last opportunity here at this race
08:04and such a super motivated team.
08:06They did so well at the start to control the breakaway
08:08and to repay them with win number three
08:10is pretty special.
08:14Here's Mattia Cattaneo going to drop back
08:16from the leading group of 13 riders
08:18and go back for Mikel Landa.
08:20Well, he is. Here's opportunity
08:22and he's not happy about it, Nico.
08:24He's in a winning position here
08:26amongst 13 riders.
08:28And here goes Barada.
08:30Nico Barada
08:32takes his first professional victory.
08:34It's a grand tour stage
08:36in his home tour in the Vuelta a España.
08:38What a dream Vuelta a España
08:40for a key poker and farmer.
08:43I think Roglic and Carapaz
08:45really want to try and win today's stage.
08:49What an incredible acceleration there.
08:51The split is gone.
08:53There we go. He's gone alone.
08:56Shigel Moser is in that group too.
08:57We've got a three horse race
08:59for the white jersey.
09:02Rimos Roglic is going to win the stage.
09:04Stage 19 up to the Alto del Mon Calvillo.
09:06And he's going to ride his way
09:08into the red jersey,
09:10into La Roja.
09:12We had drops for Carlos Rodriguez.
09:14He knows that the white jersey
09:16has changed shoulders.
09:18Really nice to have it back.
09:20It was a big fight,
09:22but still, yes,
09:24quite some fights to go.
09:28Marc Soler takes the five points.
09:30Three to Wijn.
09:32Frigo taking the one.
09:34Well, Soler and Wijn are on the same point.
09:36I don't remember when the last time
09:38we've had such a close competition
09:40and battle for the King of the Mountains.
09:42Wijn now leads the King of the Mountains
09:44competition by two points.
09:50There we go. Eddie Lombard.
09:54He came into this grand tour
09:55having never won a grand tour stage.
09:57Eddie Lombard is a two-time
09:59grand tour stage winner.
10:01Moments like this
10:03don't come around too often.
10:05I've had two of them now
10:07in the last two weeks,
10:09and I'm just looking forward
10:11to sharing these moments
10:13and celebrating them
10:15with friends and family.
10:23And the Swiss champion
10:25supersonic Stefan Kung.
10:27What's it going to be in the end?
10:29Kung, though,
10:3143 seconds better.
10:33That is a superb performance
10:35from the Danish champion
10:37Matthias Schjelmoser of Lidl Trek.
10:39He looks to have taken
10:41and become the first Danish rider
10:43to win the white jersey
10:45in the Vuelta a España.
10:47Roglic is going to win
10:49his fourth Vuelta a España
