Vuelta a España 2026 stage 9 preview – GC battle reignites on Alto de Aitana summit finish after Tadej Pogacar's abandon

Vuelta Costa Blanca
Enric Mas, Felix Gall, Oscar Onley, Primož Roglič lead the chase on stage 4 of the 2026 Vuelta a España in Andorra.

The GC will reignite with force on the summit finish of 9 of the Vuelta a España after the crash and abandon of race leader Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG). Strategies will have to be updated for the contenders, who before Saturday’s stage were all racing for the remainder of the podium spots, and now they see that they have the possibility of going for the top step.

New leader Enric Mas (Movistar) will start the day in the red jersey, the three-time Vuelta runner-up holding a one-minute lead over four-time Vuelta winner Primož Roglič (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe).
