Vuelta a Burgos: João Almeida wins queen stage as Pavel Sivakov successfully defends overall classification
CyclingSaturday, 06 August 2022 at 16:26
The queen stage of the Vuelta a Burgos delivered, as UAE Team Emirates' João Almeida thrived in the final ascent to pace his effort perfectly and in the end beat the rest of the competition to take a strong win.
The queen stage of the race didn't give much space to those looking to surprise, with the early breakaway caught before the half of the day due to the very fast pace. A second move went up the road, but the final survivor Marco Frigo was caught at the base of the ascent to the Lagunas de Neila.
Juan Pedro López attacked with seven kilometers to go, with Chris Harper doing the same and heading solo off the front. Astana mainly pushed the pace, but had to settle back as they lacked the numbers, and INEOS Grenadiers took over control of the peloton until the start of the steeper section of the ascent in the final 2.5 kilometers.
Harper was immediately caught, and Miguel Ángel López quickly made his move. INEOS didn't directly respond but had the riders to set a high pace and kept the gap stable, bringing him back with 1.7 kilometers to go, and reducing the fight to four riders inside the final kilometer.
João Almeida bridged across to the group, attacked in the last 400 meters, and then managed to outsprint López to take the stage win. Sivakov arrived in third position, inside the necessary time gap and successfully conserving the lead to win the Vuelta a Burgos.

maria2024202422-11-2024 - It happens all to often. My crashes over time have yielded a broken neck, broken back, broken left leg, crush pelvis, three broken collarbones, broken right arm and I've even lost a rib.
