Sepp Kuss (Visma-Lease a Bike) sealed overall victory at the Vuelta a Burgos after he finished safely in the main peloton in Condado de Treviño, where Pavel Bittner (Team dsm-firmenich-PostNL) won stage 5 in a bunch sprint.
Kuss had carried a lead of just five seconds over Bittner’s teammate Max Poole into the final day. Despite that slender margin, his overall victory was never really in doubt although DSM did make an attempt to open at the head of the bunch on Poole’s behalf in the final two kilometres.
