Stage 12 of the Vuelta a España rolled out as planned on Thursday from Laredo, the day after the race was completely neutralised by pro-Palestine protests in Bilbao and GC times were taken 3km from the finish.
After the chaos of the day in the Basque Country, where organisers took the late call 20km out from the line to cancel the planned finish due to multiple demonstrations, there were more Palestine supporters present with flags in the Cantabrian seaside town, but racing got underway as normal around 14:00.
