Episode 15

Following the Aubisque, today's is the shortest linear stage of the 2016 Vuelta. 118.5 spectacular kilometres between Sabinanigo and the Aramon Formigal Ski Resort. It will be a very dangerous stage, with the mountain passes of Petralba and Cotefablo, third and second category climbs respectively, before the final climb of Los Sarrios, a first category climb. Attacks searching for the chance to break away will certainly begin quite early, and the nerves and exhaustion of the day before could take its toll on many of the riders. Presented by Gary Imlach with commentary by Ned Boulting and David Millar, and Daniel Friebe the roving reporter.
