EF Education–NIPPO (Spain) - Press Release: We’re gearing up for the third and final Grand Tour of the year – the Vuelta a España. Its 76th edition is set to kick off on Saturday in Burgos, the provincial capital of Castile and León in northern Spain. The race is back to its original start date in August and while the Spanish people enjoy their holidays along their sunny coasts, the peloton will take on some of the most demanding terrain the country has to offer. This year’s Vuelta promises to be a thrilling one.
Over recent years, the race has cemented itself in the WorldTour calendar as a race full of passion, with fans that love the sport and terrain that is unforgiving to any rider who is not at the top of his game. The temperatures in the south of the country are usually unbearably hot this time of the year and the flat stages will surely threaten to blow the peloton apart. Not to mention the climbs in the north feature gradients so steep that riders refused to even attempt them until a few years ago.
Here is our roster for the 2021 Vuelta a España:
- Jonathan Caicedo
- Diego Camargo
- Simon Carr
- Hugh Carthy
- Lawson Craddock
- Jens Keukeleire
- Magnus Cort
- Tom Scully
