Usoa Ostolaza climbs onto Vuelta a Burgos Féminas podium with comeback ride up Lagunas de Neila climb

On the final stage of the Vuelta a Burgos Féminas, Usoa Ostolaza (Laboral Kutxa-Fundación Euskadi) lost contact with the best on the steepest part of the climb to the Lagunas de Neila, but the Basque climber came back from behind to finish in third place behind Yara Kastelijn (Fenix-Premier Tech) and Évita Muzic (FDJ United-Suez).

“We are absolutely thrilled to have secured the team’s first-ever podium finish in a WorldTour stage race. My teammates and the staff have done an incredible job every single day; I had great support, and they put a lot of confidence in me, I am very grateful for that,” the 28-year-old thanked her team.
