Here ii is not a question of first mountain stages, becouse they started already with mountain, so the advantage that complete rider get in the 1st week of le Tour andnshows in the forst mountain stage, is not here.. the best stage for him is Alto Campoo (Fuente del Chivo), becouse there is the hard Escudo, an later there is a flat terrain where the pure climbers will suffer and the last climb is long and not very step...so perfect for him. The stage of this weekend in Granada is good as well for him, but as well for Valverde, Purito...
In Andorra, except if he is clearly the stronger of the race, he must suffer with people as Quintana, Landa, Chaves, Purito, Pozzovivo,...
He has the ITT of Burgos to win la Vuelta, but later there are some tactical and complicated stages.
I think he will win la Vuelta, but not easy.
