Course Preview
At 180 kilometres, the 11th stage of the Vuelta a España leads from Saint Palais in France back to Spain. The arrival is in mountain village Urdax.
Urdax, also known as Urdazubi, is located in the Pyrenees. In the 2016 Vuelta a España the peloton was nowhere to be seen when attacker Valerio Conti soloed to victory. He was by far the best rider in a front group that arrived half an hour ahead of the main group.
The 11th stage of La Vuelta runs over a number of climbs to a flat finish. The last climb leads, at shallow gradients, to the intermediate sprint with 8.1 kilometres out. A short descent leads onto the last kilometres on the flat.
The first three riders on the line gain time bonuses of 10, 6 and 4 seconds, while the intermediate sprint comes with 3, 2 and 1 seconds.
