Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2025, Stage 17: O/El Barco de Valdeorras – Alto de El Morredero (143.2k)

Surreal scenery.

 

[Gratemans]

Look at these bright orange/yellow trees on a charred landscape, disorientating scenes.

Yet strangely beautiful. Really, they should visit Morredero more often from here on out.

 

[Salvarani]

A lot of wind

 

[Brullnux]

Very respectful that the riders decided to neutralise the stage themselves even without any protests

 

[Sciatic]

gotta laugh at the road "art"

 

[yaco]

Have yet to see Soler offer any assistance to Almeida in this Vuelta.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Big tailwind but they can‘t be convinced to do anything

Aside from Vingegaard on Valdezcaray, they have all raced like this is the 2023 Giro all race.

 

[Danskebjerge]

I just saw a big thing in that corner. Not sure what words are allowed to refer to it.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Someone drew a D in that corner.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

who drew that big penis around the corner

 

[postmanhat]

C*ck and balls graffited on that corner by Maxtin for Ayuso?

 

[scribers]

That dong turns corners

Helicopter cam delivers !!

 

[Gratemans]

Jonas seems to be pushing the biggest gear, he must not be feeling that bad?

 

[Heston]

Gall making it back

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Steep part over now, this is a pretty pathetic effort by everyone involved.

Well except Pellizzari.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Jonas does not look great

 

[Brullnux]

Pellizzari most aggressive rider or the day ffs

 

[ice&fire]

who drew that big penis around the corner

Someone protesting about something

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Is this also some sort of protest?

 

[RobertCrawley]

Great move by Pellizzari.

 

[Salvarani]

Pellizzarri gone

 

[scribers]

Do cyclists trash talk ?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Piddo doing a reasonable job considering he's getting rolled by 3 people

 

[Unchained]

Almeida is still Almeida, despite all the Solafraud propaganda...

Turns out when you make large, frequent withdrawals from the bank account to win stages, team spends a bunch of time on the novela with drama queen Juan Ayuso your team runs out!! Visma has Almeida isolated, Almeida has momentary lapse and had to cross the gap going uphill! He is riding good but this is really costing him.
