Summary
Sir Bradley Wiggins is joined by Daniel Lloyd and Graham Willgoss to discuss the latest action from La Vuelta ahead of a huge final week of the last Grand Tour of 2021.
The team look back on Rafal Majka’s impressive and ultimately emotional dominant solo win in the mountains of Stage 15.
Brad is not-so-quietly impressed by Odd Christian Eiking’s continued possession of the red jersey and suggests the Norwegian could end the next week with a podium finish, or perhaps more!
There’s also a look at Egan Bernal and Adam Yates, and what lies ahead for the Ineos riders in the remaining stages of the race.
Elsewhere, the Bretagne Classic took place on Sunday with Tadej Pogacar’s return to racing following the Olympics.
Brought to you by Zwift, where fun is fast.
The Bradley Wiggins Show is produced by Pete Burton.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
