The third stage of Vuelta a Andalucia was won by UAE Emirates rider Tim Wellens, who secured victory by being the fastest in the final sprint and crossing the finish line ahead of all other riders. Pierre Latour came in second place, while Samuele Battistella completed the podium.
The breakaway included Matej Mohoric, Joe Dombrowski, Iván García Cortina, Nelson Oliveira, Alessandro Covi, Christopher Juul-Jensen, Julen Amezqueta, Davide Bais, Frederik Frison, Luis Angel Mate, Aaron Van Poucke and Alex Colman. The group worked together and established a lead of 5 minutes and 10 seconds.
Despite reducing the gap to 3 minutes and 45 seconds, Peloton couldn't overtake the front group, while multiple attempts of solo attacks in the last 10 kilometres were thwarted. José Manuel Díaz, Hugo Houle and Samuele Battistella were successful in their attack and took a lead of 8 seconds. But they also failed. It was Tim Wellens who played his cards right and attacked with 200 meters to go.
Tim Wellens was the fastest and crossed the finish line to secure the win. Pierre Latour finished second and Samuele Battistella took the bronze.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
