The Vuelta a España heads towards another sprint finish on Stage
16, with 181km taking the race from Cortegana to La Rábida. Most of
the climbing comes in the opening half of the stage before the
route flattens out, setting up another opportunity for the fast
finishers. A five-man breakaway gets clear early, with Kevin
Vermaerke, Valentin Madouas, Simon Dalby, Jasha Sütterlin and
Roland Thalmann spending much of the day out front. But Visma-Lease
a Bike keep the escape firmly under control, gradually bringing the
gap down as the finish approaches. There is some late tension as
the race heads towards Palos de la Frontera, with narrow roads,
roundabouts and the threat of crosswinds creating plenty of
nervousness in the peloton. A crash also causes a brief split, but
the main sprinters make it back into position and the break is
finally caught with 23km remaining. From there, it is all about the
sprint. Visma take complete control of the finale, with Wout van
Aert delivering a superb lead-out before Matthew Brennan launches
his sprint. Nobody can come around the young Belgian, who takes
his fourth stage win of the Vuelta and makes it six
victories for Visma-Lease a Bike in this race. Bryan Coquard
finishes second, with Vito Braet third. Ned Boulting and David
Millar get into Brennan's incredible Vuelta, Visma's dominance, and
a big breakdown of the Men's Lloyds Tour of Britain. 'Mûr de Ned'
