Classifica Vuelta a España 2026: Enric Mas si difende a cronometro, Roglic supera Gall

Stefan Küng sfrutta le sue qualità da cronoman puro e si impone nella diciottesima tappa della Vuelta a España 2026, una cronometro di 32,1 chilometri da El Puerto de Santa Maria a Jerez de la Frontera. Lo svizzero della Tudor ha completato la prova in 35:22.82 con la media di 54.4 km/h, battendo per un paio di secondi il britannico Callum Thornley (Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe) e per 8″ il portoghese Joao Almeida (UAE).

Giornata molto positiva per il padrone di casa spagnolo Enric Mas (Movistar), che ha tirato fuori una delle sue migliori prestazioni di sempre nella specialità conservando la maglia roja e limitando i danni rispetto a Primoz Roglic. Lo sloveno della Red Bull si è ben comportato sulle strade andaluse, piazzandosi in quarta piazza a 18″ dal vincitore odierno, ma recuperando solamente poco più di trenta secondi a Mas.

Con questo risultato, in attesa dei prossimi due decisivi tapponi di montagna, lo scalatore iberico della Movistar guida la generale con un vantaggio di 1’37” su Roglic, 3’01” sull’austriaco Felix Gall (che ha perso oggi il posto d’onore, facendo tanta fatica a cronometro), 5’17” su Richard Carapaz e 6’03” su Oscar Onley.

Di seguito la graduatoria generale della Vuelta a España 2026 al termine della diciottesima tappa.
