2023 Vuelta a Espana final youth classification | Juan Ayuso holds off Uijtdebroeks and Almeida

Despite his performance in 2022 Juan Ayuso had not won the youth classification. This year the Spaniard succeeded, being the best young rider of the race alongside his fourth in the overall classification.

After struggling on stage 13, Remco Evenepoel dropped out of contention for the jersey, opening things up more.

Alongside him, so did Lorenzo Milesi, Andrea Piccolo and Lenny Martínez.
