2015 Vuelta stage 21: Alcalá de Henares > Madrid 97.8km

[Flamin]

11 laps of this:

Traditional Madrid finish is back, thank God. Don't forget, it's an evening stage. Finish between 20.21 and 20.40 CET.

Obvious Degenkolb win.

If Degenkolb doesn't win this it would be shameful.

 

[jens_attacks]

Oh crrap....ze goncalves.

 

[BigMac]

Late break for the win.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Valverde was obviously saving himself today and will win this final stage.

 

[May0maniac]

Bala to pull a Vino!

 

[Billie]

he'll definatly sprint like in 2012 to take the points jersey from Purito

Alcalá de Henares, birthplace of Cervantes and the seat of the defunct University of Alcalá, where so many Spanish intellectuals and humanists teached or studied (Nebrija, Calderón, Lope de Vega, Quevedo, Jovellanos, Loyola etc) during the XVI, XVII and XVIII centuries.

Yes, very nice. The middle building.. whats that?

The façade of the old building of the university.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

A distinctive and impressive construction. Thanks.

Some nice photos of what we can expect tomorrow in Madrid:

 

[Red Rick]

Lotto Jumbo to bar the road whilst Giant-Alpecin TTT their way to lap the peloton so Degenkolb can finally get his sprint win and Dumoulin can finish this Vuelta in ultimate triumph.

 

[seldon71]

Giant-Alpecin to pull the sprint train for Dumoulin? He can still grab the green if "rojo" is gone.

 

[Pippo_San]

Dumoullrich to pull a Vino. Hell yeah.

Are there even any sprinters left? Seriously, who's he going to be sprinting against, Rojas, Impey, and Van Poppel? I guess DVP and Impey have beaten him once already though.

 

[SafeBet]

Sbaragli is still in the race and has beaten him days ago.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Gougeard ftw!

 

[Billie]

Also Bennati is still here

[jsem94]

[Zoophonic]

Disappointing TV pictures for this last stage. Why is there an air exclusion zone over Madrid this afternoon I wonder?
