Soudal-QuickStep forced to borrow Burgos-BH’s bus for multiple stages after Vuelta a España breakdown

The blisteringly hot weather that has hit the opening week of the Vuelta a España has seen teams hand out more water and ice than ever before in a bid to beat the heat of southern Spain.

So far, despite riders including Richard Carapaz entering “a zone of desperation” in the high temperatures, the Vuelta peloton is suffering but surviving. The same, however, can’t be said of the team buses at the race, with Soudal-QuickStep‘s team bus falling victim to technical problems in the heat before stage 4.
