After four stages, including a summit, the top two riders in the Vuelta a España general classification are tied on time, with 22 others within 16 seconds of the lead, but that’s set to change as the race offers its first test against the clock on stage 5.
Finally reaching Spain and the town of Figueres after a foreign start in Italy and a brief foray into France, stage 5 is a team time trial, with the riders facing a flat 24.1km circuit around the Catalonian town.
On Wednesday, the teams will set off in reverse order of the teams classification, bar one exception – the team of race leader David Gaudu, Groupama-FDJ, will set off last.
