DSM ended up winning by hundredths of a second over Movistar Team and 6 seconds ahead of EF Education-EasyPost and Soudal Quick-Step. Thus, among the favorites, Enric Mas and Remco Evenepoel, second and first of the last Spanish race, are the best finishers. Thus, the worst finishers were Geraint Thomas, Primoz Roglic, Jonas Vingegaard, Juan Ayuso and Joao Almeida. Vingegaard punctures which caused Jumbo to lose meaningful time, whilst Eddie Dunbar and Laurens de Plus were among the GC contenders who went down.
