    Looks like the podium won’t change, though SRD slightly vulnerable as No Roglic in the SRD team. Remarkable to finish so high without the winner.

    Emperor Brailsford currently in second but has Roglic, Enric Mas and Jack Haig so the entire podium in their team so I think they will snatch victory from Bax at the end,

    The actual Vuelta fizzled out in the second week when Jumbo Visma let other teams take over but come week three it was fantastic. Yesterday had loads of attacks, Yates was good, and cheeky AG2R steal at the end.

    @gembo - agreed yesterday was top day especially with last km escapee. Only saw Quest roundup.

    Felt a bit sorry for Yates that he didn't manage to achieve more given all that effort. Roglic unstoppable, but denied the stage win by an impertinent Frenchman - chapeau! Time trial will decide minor placings only presumably.

    Once visited Santiago de Compostela 30 years ago, went into the cathedral and everything. Amazing place. Not sure if Vuelta finished there back then, even if it had I would have been blissfully unaware of the fact.

    Just spotted Primoz on the podium dressed as a pilgrim with hat, cloak and staff. Curious.

    He just saw the result and is very pleased. Not sure anyone else else in P7 will appreciate his success!

    Bax San who was cruelly beaten at the end asks me to pass on sincere congratulations.

    Glad he's coping with being beaten by a 10yo!

    He is in fact very glad it was Micro SRD

    No punk kid comments or nothing

    Had it been an adult who worked in financial services or indeed as a landlord he may have been less sanguine
