Philipsen sprints to third stage win in La Vuelta
MADRID, Sept. 12 (Xinhua) -- The 2025 Vuelta a Espana (Tour of Spain) cycle race will largely be decided in Saturday's mountain stage, which ends with the 2,250-meter-high climb to the 'Bola del Mundo' after Friday's stage 19 ended in a sprint finish.
The relatively flat 161-kilometer ride from Rueda to Guijuelo (regions famed for their wine and cured ham) offered one of the few remaining chances for sprinters.
