Including the only timetrial and a steep uphill ramp finish.
Spoiler
Kreuziger in stage 12 is the first rider to have won his second stage of this Vuelta. Contador is slowly getting quite a gap on almost anyone.

I would love to understand why he just can't get into a single breakaway...

It's almost as if our relegation rivals are all going all-in in this Vuelta

Finally a win for Vincenzo. Contador is very strong, though. it seems almost impossible to bridge those 2 minutes.

I thought the team didn't bother to ride in breaks that actually have a chance of succeeding. Turns out they don't bother to ride at all.

Wippert out with injuries, that's our Vuelta over..
Serry looked good on that last stage, if only he lost less time earlier on.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Time to defend the top five in the GC and maybe get a stage win.

Illes Balears giving in to the pressure but Contador and Nibali sharing the work well. We got lucky that Nibali didn't make the jump to Quintana and Martin. Contador with a fantastic few last kms to get a good gap on Nibs too, always welcome. Martin vs Majka for podium?! OMG!
Thanks for the excellent coverage and speed!

What a great stage, such a long range attack and take the stage victroy. Also KoM classification, which he might also keep until the end.
Thanks for the fast reports Bikex
