[@jelles.723]

Loving this Vuelta so far! I think what makes it so interesting and is causing so many big GC changes is the lack of team strength for all of the GC players. There is no team that can dictate the pace for the whole stage, nor is there a clear GC favorite so all teams are sort of looking at each other when e.g. Carapaz goes on the offense. Strongest team beforehand was UAE but they are nowhere (even with Yates winning today I don’t see him really riding for the podium). BORA is quite strong on paper but with Martinez and Vlasov being unpredictable Roglic isn’t directing his team to take the front like in the Jumbo days. The other teams don’t have big strength in numbers anyway. I think O’Connor, Yates and Carapaz were able to take back so much time due to the hesitation and bit of bluff poker between the big teams.

[@desryan1603]

LR & Benji were discussing - maybe after the Tour? - whether it would be better if teams were smaller, and I feellike this Vuelta is suggesting it might be. Despite the lack of obviously smaller teams

[@JSBax]

Yep I was thinking this when watching. What a vuelta so far! Teammates have been really critical at times, but not in the big numbers that lets anyone dictate stages.

[@CilnardoFN]

In my opinion, What has to be assessed is that it was Primoz Roglic who made the effort yesterday and not his teammate, who should have won today's stage so that O'Connor wouldn't get a time bonus. Roglic manages by saving energy.

[@7081_H]

Lipowitz did most of the work in the last 60 km and should have also won the sprint? Very interesting view. Roglic should have tried to get P3 but didn't have the legs yesterday.

[@edymarkonthego4096]

Carapaz is back on contention. He is in the right position to glue Roglic wheel.

[@lukehudson9369]

I do worry that Carapaz since he was second at the Giro in 22, has had 5 major stage races, and best position is 7th, and that doesn't include 4 DNFs. His best stage race performance was 2nd in the Tour of Colombia this February. Having said that he has won 4 GT stages in that time, but it doesn't look like the sort of form to challenge Mas, Landa and Roglic over another 12 stages.

[@Acyclingfan]

Mas could have taken time if he hadn't slipped out. They probably caught him at the end cause he had flashbacks of his 2022 downhill nightmares. Also great job letting Yates come back Bora.

[@lostcosmonaut3966]

I disagree, Mas crested with a minute gap and given that Yates lost two minutes to Group Roglič from the top of Hazallanas to the finish I think he was getting caught with or without his moment. He may even have been saved from a more painful, last KM catch.

[@leonhardlex314]

[@IanRobinson2yt]

Well done to Yates, they really underestimated him.

[@epincion]

Thanks Pat for the excellent review. Roglic said afterward that he 'did not have legs' which is a bit ominous for Bora. Clearly the superhuman effort yesterday to gain a stage win and also take one minute off the lead of Ben O'Connor took a lot out of him but a top quality GC rider needs to be able to recover fast overnight after a hard stage. He is getting older (34) and that will be a factor in not recovering as fast as when he was younger. GC Kuss is not present at La Vuelta this year but super-domestique Kuss is present based on his phenomenal pull for WVA yesterday. He certainly is mixing it with the GC group but cannot break into the top 10 let alone top 5.
