The second week of the Vuelta a España may have kicked off with another summit finish to Larra Belagua, but it's the day after, stage 11 in Bilbao, which is set to bring real 'chaos' to the 2025 route after a relatively straightforward start to racing in the opening 10 days.
Up until this point, the climbing days have largely been calm, with breakaways winning stages 6, 7 and 10, and pre-race favourite Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) only lighting up stage 9 after instinctively calling for his team to rip things up and launch him to solo victory.
