Vuelta 2014: Movistar outpowers competition, Quintana on course

Saturday, August 23th - La Vuelta 2014 opens with a TTT in 12.6 kilometres in Jerez de la Frontera, teeming with no less than 20 roundabouts. Nairo Quintana's Movistar, the last squad starting, bests the time of the surprisingly strong Cannondale. Uran is another GC rider giving a good performance with his team, whilst Contador and Kelderman are performing properly. Sky (Froome), Astana (Aru) and Rodríguez (Katusha) are up for some repairwork. Jonathan Castroviejo wears the red jersey tomorrow.
