Mikel Landa happy with first grand tour podium for seven years at Giro d’Italia
Bahrain Victorious rider says he will likely ride the Tour de France after a strong Giro performance that’s boosted his motivation.www.velonews.com
Tour is most likely however he has said that he is considering La Vuelta. Hopefully he feels tired these next couple of weeks and opts for Vuelta.
Yeah, when i see the route of both races, the Vuelta clearly suits him more and there's only 31km of time trial.![]()

He's never done good at the Vuelta either.
That's a great news. I didn't like the idea of him being at the Tour with Haig, Caruso & Mader as leaders. He will be the sole GC leader for Bahrain for the Vuelta & the route suits him.Landa will not be at the Tour de France this year. He focuses on the GC at the vuelta for the first time in his career.

That’s also crazy many riders…It's not yet confirmed but Bahrain will have a crazy strong team in the Vuelta. Landa will have the support of Mader, Bilbao, Poels, Pernsteinner, Sanchez, Williams, Mohoric, Haig & Caruso( to be confirmed).

Is he out for that long yeah? Damn.. I thought me might make the Vuelta..Haig is probably out for the rest of the year after injuries suffered in the TDF.
Even their harshest of critics would be surprised that they'd cheat this blatantly.
A lot of racedays already. Time to go to the beachI never understood why he skipped it in 2020.

If he starts, yes. He missed it in 2018 after crashing out in San Sebastian.Is it the first time that Landa will aim for Vuelta GC? I didn't count last year because he just raced it with no build-up & injuries

Yeah, but it wasn't a big field, so even when he was not in shape, it was enough to win it.Landa won Burgos before the 2021 Vuelta.
