Sepp Kuss remains the leader of the Vuelta a España, but with much of his advantage lost. Jonas Vingegaard attacked on the arrival to Bejes, went solo and took the victory before the lack of reaction of Juan Ayuso and Enric Mas;
Surprisingly, from the group of favorites, only Primoz Roglic attacked, which showed the weaknesses of Kuss. The leader lost time with the Slovenian, Mas and Ayuso at the finish line. Vingegaard is very close to the red jersey, especially considering that tomorrow comes the Angliru stage. The cards are clearly on the table Jumbo-Visma riders are attacking one and another in the battle for the Red Jersey. Every man for themselves?
