Stage 11 of the 2024 Vuelta a Espana saw the fight for the Red Jersey ignite once again. For Soudal - Quick-Step's Mikel Landa, it ended up being a solid day despite a slight scare on the final climb of the day.
“It’s been another hard stage," reflected the Spaniard afterwards in conversation with Soudal - Quick-Step's official website. "The breakaway took two hours to go, then on the last ascent we rode full gas, as some of the GC guys wanted to gain time. I had a moment of difficulty, but luckily, I found Mattia Cattaneo, who did a good pace and helped me return to the front."
"I am happy with how things panned out in the end and already thinking of tomorrow’s stage,” concludes Landa, who will take to the start line on stage 12 sitting 5th overall.
