La Vuelta A Espana Highlights: Season 2016, Episode 17

2016 - 17: Episode 17

Following on from yesterday's rest day, a 177.5-kilometre stage with another high-altitude finish in the unprecedented Mas de la Costa, in Llucena. It is a short mountain pass, just 4km long, with an average inclination of 13 per cent but with peaks of up to 22 per cent. The battle among the top classified riders will commence from the beginning of the climb and could put an end to the hopes and dreams of some of the favourites. Presented by Gary Imlach with commentary by Ned Boulting and David Millar, and Daniel Friebe the roving reporter.
