La Madrid Challenge by La Vuelta *SPOILERS *

[mjr]

So it's on Eurosport now. Broadcast start was delayed by thirty minutes by preceding event overrun.

Various small breakaways up the road, none getting much gap. It's looking like being a big bunch sprint, which seems like an anticlimax for the Women's World Tour IMO.

Who do you think will win and how?

2 laps to go and finally a dangerous break has almost thirty seconds gap. Doesn't look enough but well done Frapporti and Lichtenberg injecting a bit of life into proceedings!

I'm hoping they show it as part of the highlights show.

Me too. It'll be easier to follow with English commentary
