Stage 3 map & profile

Maxime Daniel wins the final stage.

Weather at Madrid at 1:40 PM, local time: 21C (70F), sunny, with the wind from the NNE at 13 km/hr (8 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: Here's the report from Carlos Barbero's Team Movistar.

The Arkéa Samsic squad and Frenchman Clément Russo came victorious at the end of the 32nd Vuelta a Madrid, whose final stage covered 19 laps and 100km into a demanding, rectilinear circuit in the city’s famous Paseo de la Castellana.

The Britanny squad (Arkea -Samsic), also claiming the day’s success with Maxime Daniel, took two places of the podium in the Spanish race, the other one awarded to Carlos Barbero (3rd) after huge efforts from the Movistar Team throughout the weekend.

With all Blues sheltered until the final lap of the up-and-down course between Plaza de Castilla and the San Juan de la Cruz square, Barbero and his team-mates made a late surge to seek for good fortune into a very nervous finish, where Carlos ultimately notched up 5th place behind winner Daniel, Niccolò Bonifazio (TDE, 2nd) and GC podium finishers Russo and Romain Hardy.

Edu Prades, also present into the dozen riders who had a shot at the final victory at this final stage by position countback, ended up in 9th overall.

Complete results:

99.94 kilometers raced at an average speed of 43.690 km/hr

Stage 2 map & profile

Alex Aranburu takes the stage and the GC lead. Photo: Gomez Sport.

Weather at San Martín de Valdeiglesias at 2:00 PM, local time: 24C (76F), sunny, with the wind from the NNW at 11 km/hr (7 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: Here's the report from winner Alex Aranburu's Caja Rural team.

The second triumph of the season arrived, the first one in Spain for Caja Rural – Seguros RGA. A portentous sprint, full of power, gave the success to Álex Aranburu in the second day of the Vuelta a Madrid, the queen stage of this three-day event.

Previously, the whole team collaborated looking for the victory. With the bunch selected after the first phase of the day, Jonathan Lastra, Gonzalo Serrano, Sergei Chernetskii and Aranburu himself were part of a group of no more than thirty-five units. Serrano was especially active, first escaped in a quartet and later setting the pace in El Encinar del Alberche, the last climb of the day.

His work preceded the attack of Jonathan Lastra, who nevertheless would be reached within a few meters. Already in the hard entrance to San Martin de Valdeiglesias, Aranburu attacked from far away, after catching up the Russian Shalunov in a pre-arrival climb. With his triumph, the Basque also becomes the new leader of the race, wearing a red jersey that he will try to defend this Sunday in the last stage.

Álex Aranburu: This year started badly, as I was injured for two months. It seems that I have turned it around and more with this triumph. The team has worked very well, we have tried to select in the last climb and then we have tried it with several attacks .Yesterday it was a massive sprint and I managed to get in front, so tomorrow I will go for all to defend the first place. It will be a short and explosive stage, but I will give my best.

José Miguel Fernández (sports director): It’s been a year with a lot of injuries for the team since the beginning of the season, so we started to raise our heads, recovering riders, despite the fact that others are still injured. Winning in my town it means a lot to me, I do not know what else I can ask for.

Friday, May 10: Stage 1 - Aranjuez - Aranjuez, 164.1 km

Stage 1 map & profile

Niccolo Bonifazio takes the first stage.

Weather at the start/finish city of Aranjuez at 2:00 PM, local time: 23C (74F), mostly cloudy, with the wind from the WSW at 24 km/hr (15 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: Team Movistar posted this race report.

In such a race like the 32nd Vuelta a Madrid, with no bonus seconds and the GC likely to be contested into position countback at the end of its three stages, the Movistar Team was focused on achieving two goals at Friday’s 161km inaugural stage around Aranjuez: skimming off the field of contenders and putting two of its riders -Carlos Barbero and Edu Prades- into the leading places of the inevitable bunch sprint.

The Telefónica-backed squad picked up the pace at the front of the leading group near the final categorized climb, Chinchón (Cat-3), to make things harder into a final section with no significant winds. Barbero launched a very early sprint, under the 300m banner, to eventually take fifth place, behind Niccolò Bonifazio (TDE), Enrique Sanz (EUS) and Arkéa duo Clément Russo + Maxime Daniel.

In turn, Prades took 15th place, also inside a peloton containing the other five Blues – including Rafa Valls, who finished in the bunch in his first day back after injuries during Paris-Nice. The Vuelta a Madrid will tackle its toughest mountains on Saturday’s 164km stage two around San Martín de Valdeiglesias, yet with just one Cat-3 climb near the end.
