Vuelta a España Stage 18 - Time trial start times
Stage 18 of the 2025 Vuelta a España presents the first and only individual time trial of the race, a crucial test at this point in the competition.
Originally planned for 27.2km, the stage's distance was shortened amid concerns that the race could be disrupted by ongoing protests against Israel-Premier Tech’s participation. The race organisation, in coordination with local authorities, made the decision to ensure the safety of the riders and spectators.
With minimal climbing, the shortened route will still provide a crucial test for the GC contenders. Jonas Vingegaard, who holds a 50-second lead over João Almeida. Both riders will be aiming for a strong time trial performance to stay in contention for the Vuelta win.
Oscar Riesebeek (Alpecin-Deceuninck) will be the first rider to start at 14:35 CET, with each rider departing at one-minute intervals. The top 10 in the general classification will start last, with a two-minute gap between each rider, and Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma | Lease a Bike) will leave the ramp as the final rider at 17:17 CET.
