Astana's Miguel Ángel López finished the 12th stage of the Vuelta a España in the third overall position and on top of the Young Classification after an uneventful day for the GC riders.
Although the 12th day of competition in the Spanish grand tour was packed with action in the escape group -which was only formed after more than 100 kilometres of racing, for the General Classification riders was a calm day. The only move of the stage came from López himself on the last climb of the day, but he was soon neutralised by the rest of the favourites.
"I only attacked to see how the others were feeling," explained the Colombian at the end of the stage. "Still, I knew it would be hard to open differences in that kind of climb. We stayed focused until the finish.
"Tomorrow will be quite an important stage. We hope to have good legs to do something interesting. Primoz Roglic is human. If he were a machine, of course, he would be unbeatable... But he is human and we’ll find his weakness."
