Stage 5 Vuelta a España 2025

27.08

UAE Team Emirates powered to victory in stage 5’s team time trial at the Vuelta a España, timing their effort perfectly to overhaul long-time leaders Lidl-Trek. Visma | Lease a Bike recovered from a poor start to finish second, putting Jonas Vingegaard back into the overall lead by eight seconds.

What we said beforehand

Stage 5 brings the Vuelta a España back to Spanish soil - but not with a typical road stage. A 20km team time trial in Figueres, the latest in race history since 1974, could reshuffle the GC depending on team strength. With a flat profile and a late uphill drag, pacing and team cohesion will be key to gaining or losing time.
