Sam Bennett Takes Second Stage Victory in a Row at the Vuelta

BORA-hansgrohe Team (Spain) - Press Release: The last stage in the Netherlands was again a showdown between the fast men, who contested the sprint win on a circuit around Breda on the longest stage of this year's Vuelta, at 193.5 km in length. Sam Bennett started the stage in the green points jersey and hoped to be able to defend it and take another stage win. With the team providing him with exemplary support all day, in the end, Danny van Poppel was the last man to set his teammate up perfectly on the left hand side of the road, ahead of the bunch sprint. The Irish fast man was able to hold his own in a hectic tussle at the front and ultimately take the win. The team from Raubling thereby took its second stage victory in a row and extended its lead in the points classification. Today's stage is now followed by a transfer to the Basque country and a rest day tomorrow before the peloton contests the first hilly stage of this year's Vuelta.

Result:

  1. S. Bennett: 4:05:53
  2. M. Pedersen: +0:00
  3. D. McLay: +0:00
