VIDEO: Milan Menten's hopes of Vuelta stage win denied by heavy crash 3km from the line

Another day at the 2023 Vuelta a Espana with a dramatic, crash involved finale. For Lotto Dstny's Milan Menten, any hopes of victory were quashed by a late fall.

With just 3.1km to the line, Menten was one of a number of riders to hit the deck hard, scraping across the tarmac at high speed. As the crash came agonisingly outside the safety of the 3km to go marker, general classification riders must have been worried, although seemingly all navigated through the drama without incident.

Kaden Groves once again took the stage win, but check out the prior crash in the video below!
