Sunday, May 7: 3rd & Final Stage, Madrid - Madrid, 100 km

Jasha Sutterlin wins the stage, but Oscar Sevilla (5th today) is the final overall winner.

The race: Here's the story from stage winn Jasha Sutterlin's Movistar team.

A mighty move with less than a kilometer remaining on the fast stage three in the Vuelta a Madrid -100km and 19 laps around the capital’s financial district- brought Jasha Sütterlin (Movistar Team) his first success as a professional cyclist.

The powerhouse from Freiburg, 24, was initially expected to act as lead-out for his team-mate and Saturday’s winner Carlos Barbero, yet the lack of order inside the bunch after the final 180º corner allowed him opening a slight gap over the field, one that he’d not let shrink anymore. Barbero celebrated Jasha's win in 4th spot.

Vice German ITT champion in 2016 and a key piece for many of his team-mates’ wins, Sütterlin’s maiden win ups the Blues’ account to a record 23, with eight different riders. In turn, Richard Carapaz managed to retain a top-ten overall finish (6th), also his first in a European stagerace.

Jasha Sütterlin: "I'm so happy for myself and especially for the team - we did such a great job together during the whole weekend, and we hope to keep this group going and succeeding in the future. It wasn't a planned move: we were just trying to lead Barbero out, but the course - which suited me well, slightly uphill on the 2.5km up the finish and then down - and our good position into the final lap allowed me to make my move.

"After the final corner, with around 800m to go, I saw everyone hesitating, looking at each other, so I just went and tried to hold on - it felt really great. Celebrating today's success? Maybe not today! (smiles) I have to travel to Sierra Nevada in southern Spain for some altitude training that will get me ready for the upcoming goals this season. Maybe the next one allows me enjoying it a bit more!

Saturday, May 6: Stage 2, Valdemoro - Valdemoro, 148.5 km

Carlos Barbero wins the second stage ahead of Oscar Sevilla

The race: Here's the story from stage winner Carlos Barbero's Movistar team.

The Movistar Team's winning momentum in 2017 remained alive in the 30th Vuelta Ciclista a la Comunidad de Madrid. After Richard Carapaz scored a 3rd place in Friday's mountainous day towards Las Rozas, Saturday brought Carlos Barbero's sprinting win in Valdemoro, end of stage two (148.5km).

The Spanish youngster -turned 26 last Saturday- was able to remain calm in a really fast (above 44kph average), attacking race, his team-mates freeing the Blues' main hope for the day of any pressure. In the finale, the José Luis Laguía-led squad worked hard to bring down the dangerous move from Domingos Gonçalves (BOA) and Igor Merino (BUR), also setting up both Carapaz, 8th at the finish, and Barbero, who took his second victory of the 2017 season.

It's the Spanish outfit's 22nd success this year, the Movistar Team ready to profit from another chance on Sunday's closing 19 laps around Madrid's Paseo de la Castellana (100km). At the capital's financial district, Carapaz will also fight to conserve a coveted, well-fought overall podium finish.

Carlos Barbero: "It was a really fast stage, always with big groups going ahead - ten to twelve riders each. We always tried to put some of our riders into the moves to avoid suffering by being forced to push from behind. There were two different battles in today's stage: one for the day's win, another one to stay at the front and not losing any positions, because the GC is so tight that everything will come down to the sum of positions. We had to do some work into the escape, but we also needed to keep Richard in a good place and control the bunch for the sprint. My team-mates rode brilliantly.

"I am a rider who likes his job, wants to compete as much as possible and also keep strong form all over the season. That requires you to manage your energy and especially your fitness level all year long - when you're a sprinter, you always want to be at 100%. After the Klasika Primavera in Amorebieta, I stopped racing for three weeks; I felt myself doing well in Asturias and I knew that some good things could happen here in Madrid. I hope to continue with this good streak all the way to the Spanish National Championships, then I'll take on a longer stop to get ready for the late part of the season.

"Sunday's stage will be another tough one. There will be plenty of teams interested on trying to improve their overall finish and chase the stage win - they will have to work as hard as we did today to get it. The win goes to all of my loved ones, everyone who always remains by my side, in good and bad moments. It would be a mistake not to think about them when things go well for you."

Friday, May 5: Stage 1, Las Rozas - Las Rozas, 145.1 km

Raul Alarcon wins the first stage

The race: Here's the organizer's telling of the day's racing.

The 30th Tour International de Madrid started this morning in Las Rozas, with a hard and selective stage that has served to put the first leader 's jersey at the back of Raúl Alarcón (W52-FC Porto). The Alicante started as one of the wheels to continue in this race and confirmed his eight companions beating a leak that managed to reach the finish line with more than two minutes ahead.

It is the third victory for Alarcon, who comes with good pedal stroke after winning earlier this week Vuelta a Asturias in which overcame a whole Nairo Quintana. The opening stage of the Vuelta a Madrid had planned to travel more selective of the three scheduled days, with 145 kilometers and categorized climbs of Galapagar (3rd), El León (2nd), Los Angeles de San Rafael (3rd) Navacerrada ( 1st) and La Serranilla (3rd). Moreover, the alternation of rain, sun, wind and fog in the peaks provided some epic tone enhanced by the fighting shown by 120 runners.

And it is that the attacks raged out, looking good escape from the same port of Galapagar they start up. On its summit he crowned the first Colombian Wimar Pérez (Sapura) would end at the end of the day to seize the provisional leadership of the mountain. Later they tried unsuccessfully Colombian Higuita and Sierra (Postobon Manzana) and Cordoba Jorge Cubero (Burgos HB). Around kilometer 25 a cut of 14 runners with people like Merino Osorio, Bravo, Shilov or Lastra could reach a maximum income of half a minute in the sprint of Guadarrama, to die in full high Lion ramps.

He was slow to make good getaway, and had to wait to pass through Los Angeles de San Rafael for crystallizing a leak of nine units formed in dribs and drabs with Carapaz (Movistar), Reyes and Aguirre (Postobón), Vargas and Paredes (Medellin Inder), Bravo (Euskadi Murias), Ferrari (Caja Rural), Strakhov (Lokosphinx) and Zurita (Bolivia). They amassed nearly two minutes in the following kilometers, but insufficient to overcome with guarantees of success Navacerrada port that would exercise decisive stage filter.

Manchego put his team Medellin inder, to pull hard on the foothills of Navacerrada, then go on the attack and take rolls Sergio Pardilla (Caja Rural), Raúl Alarcón (W52) and Dayer Quintana (Movistar) . The differences between this quartet and head would eventually be diluted after passing the top of the highest in its descent and the final nine break coming to the end Rozas fraguaría.

Carapaz, Pardilla, Strakhov, Reyes Aguirre, Bravo, Sevilla, Ferrari and Alarcon they disagreed and worked to achieve more than two minutes to pass through the top of La Serranilla . In the peloton and the Spanish Movistar Team for their sprinters they were organized when the difference soared above three minutes. However, even though other teams like Bolivia joined this effort and managed to reduce hunting to 2:20 twenty kilometers from the finish, there was no distance or time to neutralize the leak.

The nine cited were presented on the short straight of the Avenida de Retamar in Las Rozas, Raúl Alarcón imposed the sprint to Dmitrii Strakhov (Lokophinx) and Richard Carapaz (Movistar Team) and becoming the first red jersey of the Tour. For his part, Juan José Lobato (Spanish Selection) led the arrival of the main peloton 2:33 behind the winner.

Tomorrow second stage of the Tour of the Community of Madrid, starting and finishing in Valdemoro . They will be 148 kilometers, with high mountain Chinchon-Los Molinos (3rd) at kilometer 35.6 and Pinar de Villamanrique (3rd) in 99.4. Flyers goals will be located in Villarejo de Salvanés (km 57.3) and Villaconejos (km 125.9). The departure is scheduled for 9:55 and the arrival between one and a half and two in the afternoon.
