After eight stages of the Vuelta a España, Tom Pidcock (Q36.5) remains well-placed on GC, having confirmed his goal of finishing in the top 10 overall, but thinks that the racing so far has been "uneventful".

The Brit is biding his time in Spain, having been up to the task of the climbing days so far, and he currently sits 11th with just 30 seconds separating him from GC favourite Jonas Vingegaard (VIsma-Lease a Bike) in second. Torstein Træen (Bahrain-Victorious leads everyone by more than two and a half minutes, but he gained all of his advantage as part of the stage 6 breakaway.
