The race: All 180 stage three finishers began today's stage.

Here's the race organizer's stage four summary:

As soon as La Vuelta hit the first Spanish climbs of the 2022 edition, Primoz Roglic rose to glory. The Slovenian star dominated the uphill sprint at the end of stage 4 in Laguardia, on Tuesday, to take his 10th stage win in the Spanish Grand Tour ahead of Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo) and Enric Mas (Movistar). He also is the fourth rider from Jumbo-Visma to take La Roja in La Vuelta 22, after Robert Gesink, Mike Teunissen and Edoardo Affini. More climbing challenges await the peloton as they head to Bilbao on day 5.

On the day after the transfer from the Netherlands to the Basque country, 180 riders start from Vitoria-Gasteiz, facing a hilly 152.5km course towards the uphill finish in Laguardia. The return to Spain and such terrain inspire many attackers.

Bora-Hansgrohe and Jumbo-Visma control the day
After 5km, Alexey Lutsenko (Astana Qazaqstan) and Alessandro De Marchi (Israel Premier Tech) are the first riders to open a gap. Several chasers launch counter-attacks, until four more riders make the break: James Shaw (EF Education-EasyPost), Ander Okamika (Burgos-BH), Jarrad Drizners (Lotto Soudal) and Joan Bou (Euskaltel-Euskadi)

The gap is up to 2’ when Bora-Hansgrohe and Jumbo-Visma start driving the bunch, 15km into the stage. The attackers push their lead to a maximum of 3’15’’ atop the first climb of the day, the cat-2 ascent of Puerto de Opakua (km 61.9). Joan Bou goes first over the top and takes the lead of the KOM standings.

Affini works for Roglic
With a very strong pace on a rolling terrain, riders struggle at the front of the race and in the bunch. Ander Okamika is dropped from the breakaway with 73km to go. Jarrad Drizners and Joan Bou suffer the same fate 20km further. The gap to the bunch is already down to under 1 minute.

Alexey Lutsenko, James Shaw and Alessandro De Marchi are eventually reeled in 35km away from the line. The battle for the front positions of the bunch is on ahead of the cat-3 ascent of the Puerto de Herrera (km 138).

With La Roja on his shoulders, Edoardo Affini (Jumbo-Visma) drives the bunch at a high speed towards the climb. He is quickly dropped as they hit the first slopes.

Roglic, naturally
Trek-Segafredo and Jumbo-Visma set the pace on the climb. Julian Alaphilippe (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) accelerates towards the summit and Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) is quick to react and to take the 3 bonus seconds at the summit.

Riders from Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl and Vincenzo Nibali (Astana Qazaqstan) try to make the most of the downhill towards Laguardia but it all comes down to the final uphill kilometre, where Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) sprints to victory ahead of Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo). He also takes his 37th red leader’s jersey in the Spanish Grand Tour.
