Vingegaard Secures Lead in 2025 Vuelta a España

The 80th edition of the Tour of Spain is underway, and after a thrilling Stage 11, Jonas Vingegaard from Team Visma-Lease a Bike is the clear favorite to wear the red jersey (maillot rojo) at the finish of the Vuelta a España 2025 in Madrid on September 14.

Before Vingegaard's recovery of the red jersey on Tuesday, Torstein Træen from Team Bahrain Victorious was the surprising leader. However, the Norwegian finished in 4th place, 1 minute and 16 seconds behind Vingegaard, with Tom Pidcock from Ineos Grenadiers finishing in 3rd place, 56 seconds behind the Danish rider.

Felix Gall from Movistar Team and Matteo Jorgenson from Movistar Team finished in 5th and 6th place, respectively, both 2 minutes and 19 seconds behind Vingegaard. Jai Hindley from Team Bora-Hansgrohe and Giulio Pellizzari from Team Astana-Qazaqstan followed closely behind in 7th and 9th place, 2 minutes and 32 seconds and 2 minutes and 50 seconds behind Vingegaard, respectively. Giulio Ciccone from Trek-Segafredo finished in 8th place, 2 minutes and 39 seconds behind the leader.

Stage 11 of the Vuelta route had a start and finish in Bilbao, with a challenging final part that included the Balcon de Bizkaia, a double ascent to Vivero, and a short but tough climb to Pike Bidea (2.3 kilometers at 8.9%). There was no stage winner for Stage 11, but mountain points and intermediate sprint points were awarded.

The 2025 Tour of Spain started in Italy and passes through France, Andorra, and Spain, with the southernmost point being Madrid, the capital of Spain. Thursday's stage aims to return to normality with a medium mountain stage in Cantabria. The general classification times for Stage 11 were taken 3 kilometers from the finish line due to safety concerns.

The only individual time trial of the 2025 Vuelta a España will take place in Valladolid on September 11, covering a distance of 27.2 kilometers in an urban setting.

With key rivals like Tadej Pogačar and Primož Roglič absent, Vingegaard is poised to claim the top spot in Madrid, making him the top contender for the red jersey. The race continues, and all eyes will be on Vingegaard as he strives to maintain his lead and secure victory in the 2025 Vuelta a España.
