The Vuelta a España starts this year on Dutch soil. With a team time trial in Utrecht on Friday and opportunities for the sprinters on Saturday and Sunday. Then they travel to Spain where a very tough course awaits them. There are eight mountain stages and a very flat time trial of over 30 kilometres that will determine who takes the final victory.
The big question is whether Primož Roglič will make it to the start in top condition. The winner of 2019, 2020 and 2021 came out of the Tour de France heavily injured. In any case, it promises to be a strong field. The starting list includes Richard Carapaz, Jai Hindley, Simon Yates, João Almeida, Mikel Landa, Enric Mas, Nairo Quintana, Wilco Kelderman and Remco Evenepoel.

To create a team every player enters 15 riders and 5 substitute riders. When a rider does not start in a stage, then the first available substitute takes his place. The points of the drop-out will remain in your total points scored, the points of the substitute will only count from start of the next stage.
The game will cost €10 per team and will start with a guaranteed amount of €26,000 in prizes. The first prize in the general classification (301 prizes) will be €2,000.
