Welcome to the business end of this year’s race. #PreviewTime.
Stage 18: Colmenar Viejo > Becerril (178km)
From crosswind chaos to high mountain madness, the GC riders are straight back into the firing line tomorrow.
But who'll be pulling the trigger?

Who’d have thought today’s stage, with no categorised climbs in sight, would turn into one of the most crucial stages of this year’s race! Perhaps that’s what made it so entertaining, that and the wild Movistar tactics 😉

Anyway, tomorrow we head back into the mountains, a stage with no less than four Cat 1 climbs on the menu. Now Movistar have smelt blood, will they try and punish Roglic some more?
You bet they will – the question is where are they going to do it?

Hoy en el día de descanso de #LaVuelta19 vamos a aprovechar para repasar los ciclistas que aparecen en nuestra galería que acabarían corriendo en la gran ronda española. El orden es totalmente aleatorio que conste. Abrimos hilo:
Empezamos por el único ciclista que aparece en nuestra galería que sigue activo en la actual vuelta: el gran @alejanvalverde. Ya desde pequeño apuntaba maneras ciclopedia.es/galeria/vuelta… #LaVuelta19
El gran culpable de que muchos nos engancháramos a este deporte, el gran @pedrodelgadoweb también fue joven ;) Aquí podemos verle en una foto del año 77 cuando competía en juveniles ciclopedia.es/galeria/el-mit… #LaVuelta19
I’m back baby. And what a stage to make my return! A short, spicy spectacular around Andorra.
Stage 9: Andorra la Vella > Cortals d'Encamp (94.4km)
What's that? The Queen Stage already? Wow, you really are spoiling us this year Javier...

This is an absolute beast of a stage, with five leg-breaking climbs and almost zero flat kilometres in sight.
Make no mistake people, this is the Queen Stage of this year's race! The Vuelta won't be won here, but I bet you a handful will lose it tomorrow.

We've got a roundabout route around Andorra tomorrow - passing several spots more than twice as we zip up and down the mountains that surround the valley town of Andorra la Vella.
The organisers have really tried to pack in as much climbing as possible...

I have a real soft spot for the Vuelta, as I'm sure you all do too.
Yes it might be the youngest of the Grand Tours, and yes it may - by some - be considered the least prestigious of the lot.
But for me it's always the one that, without exception, produces...

...the most exciting racing year on year.
That's primarily down to two factors:
1. It's raced on a crazy and sometimes utterly barbaric route seemingly organised by the devil himself
2. Riders are much more willing to risk it all.
