Since its debut on a tour of the Vuelta a Espaa in 1999, the port of LAngliru has become the object of desire for both climbers and cyclists who want to inscribe their name as winners of the Vuelta a Espaa.
On this occasion, he will be promoted with a week remaining to finish the race and with a short, fearsome and decisive route.
The cyclists will only enjoy a first part of 20 flat kilometers, even in slight descent, to enter a continuous up and down of 90 kilometers marked out with five mountain passes, two of third, two of first and the Angliru, of special category , which will be uploaded in that order.
The twelfth stage will take the survivors of the race from Pola de Laviana to Angliru with 109.4 kilometers of travel and 4,000 meters of accumulated unevenness.
Although this day on paper has 800 meters less accumulated unevenness than the previous day in La Farrapona-Lagos de Somiedo, the effort in these two days will be one of the factors that can take their toll.
The hard ramps of up to 23.5% of La Cuea les Cabres about two kilometers from the finish, where the bikes of the best cyclists in the peloton do not exceed 10 kilometers per hour, are fearsome and the slightest fainting or Lack of strength in them ends up paying off with the loss of a good handful of seconds.
Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) seeks to defend the leader’s red jersey. The Slovenian is tied in time with the Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz (Ineos Grenadier), he has 25 seconds ahead of the Irish Daniel Martin (Israel Start-Up Nation) and with 58 seconds over the British Hugh Carthy (Education First).
