The stage was cancelled today due to severe weather conditions in the last 15km. No times were recorded and no stage winner declared for today. So stage 4...

Stage 4 may be short but what it lacks in distance it makes up for in elevation. 4 Andorran summits to negotiate and a likely GC battle to the line.

9 players picked Matthew Brennan as todays winner. Congrats to you all.

There are 5 players tied for the GC lead and stage winners competition so let's move straight to stage 3. All the climbing for this stage is towards the end and may be suited to a breakaway group making it to the line.

Those that picked Wout van Aert (22nd) and Mads Pedersen (4th) may wonder why Wout's selection counted rather than Mads. This is because Wout was awarded bonus seconds and got a better finishing time.

A gripping individual time trial won by Tadej Pogačar by just 0.09 seconds! Ethan Hayter misses out just at the end and the podium is completed by Joshua Tarling.

53 players opened their Vuelta account with a podium position but only 3 players had the winner. Congrats to Nacho C*, Mark G* and Jony F. Those 3 lead the stage winners contest, obviously, but share the GC lead with 25 others as Ethan Hayter posted the same (rounded) time.

Tomorrows stage is an undulating hilly affair - although none of those hills particularly challenging. Expectations are a well controlled peloton and the usual suspects battling it our for the sprint. But cycling doesn't always follow the script.
