There will be no easing back into racing for Enric Mas after the crash that ruined his Tour de France crash, who will be pinning on a number for the first time since as the leader of Movistar’s Vuelta a España squad.
Attention may be on the Jumbo-Visma duo of Primož Roglič and Jonas Vingegaard to challenge the defence of last year’s winner Remco Evenepoel, with Mas flying under the radar in no small part because of his absence from races since that stage one crash on the descent of the Alto de Vivero that left him with a broken right shoulder blade.
