Spaniard strongest at end of finish in La Laguna Negra American Sepp Kuss retains leader’s red jersey
Jesús Herrada was strongest at the end of a climbing finish to win stage 11 of the Vuelta a España, a 163.5km ride from Lerma to La Laguna Negra, on Wednesday.
The stage was characterised by numerous early breakaway attempts, all foiled by the peloton. With almost 50km gone, a 26-man group, including Cofidis’s Herrada, made the break which counted. Romain Grégoire of Groupama-FDJ finished second, three seconds behind Herrada, with Andreas Kron of Lotto-Dstny third.
