Pavel Bittner has sprinted to victory on the opening stage of the 2024 Vuelta a Burgos in a frantic finale in Burgos itself.
With three Spaniards getting themselves into the breakaway of the day, the most notable of who being Diego Pablo Sevilla of Team Polti Kometa, the peloton were always keeping the time gap manageable and with 14 kilometres left of the day, the catch was complete.
At the intermediate sprint, where bonus seconds were on offer, Team DSM-Firmenich's returning Max Poole bagged the three seconds, the could prove key in the general classification by the end of the race. From there, it was all about the bunch sprint finale. In the fight for the line, it was Poole's teammate Pavel Bittner who secured the win ahead of Giacomo Nizzolo and Ivan Garcia Cortina.

- If Storer is going to be so difficult to catch then let’s focus on the rest of the podium. How about the 18y old for defending 2nd? He already proved himself enduring and consistant in the UAE tour.Mistermaumau22-04-2025

- Good for you, I’m pretty sure you’re right about Jonas, he was probably brought up to consider family more important than anything work related, as most sane people. It’s so obvious in cycling though, your career is 10-15y, your partner and kids are for life, not hard to decide which is worth fighting for keeping more. You don’t see many happy ageing singles, it may seem cool when you’re younger but what are you left with later except nostalgia? Marriage is definitely not something to hurry into these days, it takes a looooong time to discover a whole person with all of today’s possibilities and activities.Mistermaumau22-04-2025
- Would be interesting to see the profile of voters.Jumpyjohn22-04-2025
- yup, that’s sad. marriage is a tough proposition under the best circumstances. i get the FEELING that one of the reasons why jonas doesn’t race as much as people would like is that he fights to put family first? again, im not in a position to say, but we learn from the mistakes of our colleagues if we’re lucky. in the professional culture i come from, naval aviation, marriages tragically drop like flies and there’s sometimes nothing w we can do about it. but i TIRED to make the little differences where i could and ended up one of the lucky ones.OCexile22-04-2025
