Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) made it clear on Wednesday that tomorrow's second summit finish of the Vuelta a España would be a major voyage in the dark. The current race leader faces a second mountain stage of the Vuelta on stage 6, having won the first challenge on stage 3 to Andorra.
When asked what he knew about the Javalambre, the category 1 climb set deep in the sierras of Teruel that will play a decisive role in Thursday’s stage, he answered simply: “I don’t know anything. I don’t know what to expect.”
