Summary

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Juan Ayuso's statement win from the breakaway on Stage 12 of the Vuelta a España, which saw a massive early move go clear before UAE used their superior firepower to claim their fifth stage of the race, while the GC contenders sat back to save energy for the looming showdown tomorrow. They discuss how impressive UAE's win total has been so far, but debate whether this strategy is compatible with a GC campaign. Before wrapping up, they preview tomorrow's brutal stage finish atop one of the hardest climbs in professional cycling, l'Angliru, discussing which GC contender might stamp their authority on the race, how they expect the stage to unfold, and who presents the best betting value.
