Vuelta 2015 stage 18: Nicolas Roche powers to win, Dumoulin retains lead

Vuelta 2015 stage 18: Nicolas Roche powers to win, Dumoulin retains lead

Stage 18 offers a hilly parcours with the 1st category climb Puerto de la Quesera in the finale. It's there Nicolas Roche leaves the break of the day and he is accompanied by Zubeldia. The Irishman outsprints Zubeldia, while Aru attacked Dumoulin at the closing climb, but to no avail. The Dutchman retains the red jersey.

Typical Spanish with hill galore, or should we call it a rolling Spanish landscape? Anyway, stage 18 never gets too steep. With 13 kilometres left Puerto de la Quesera is crested and then the riders will fly to the finish in the descent.
