GUADALAJARA, Spain: Philippe Gilbert claimed a second stage victory at this year’s Vuelta a Espana as Nairo Quintana rode himself back into overall contention with a fine performance in the breakaway on stage 17.

Valverde is 00:02:48 behind, while fourth-placed Tadej Pogacar looks to be out of contention for a podium spot at 00:03:42 behind Roglic. "We were able to profit on a day when anything could’ve happened. I'm feeling a bit better having been suffering with a cold, but we'll see how I do in the mountains tomorrow."The 219.6km flat course - the longest in this year’s race - from Aranda del Duero to Guadalajara was marked by strong crosswinds, which led to a frenetic pace of racing; a remarkable 50.6kph was the average speed throughout.
