Koersverloop
Jimmy Janssens, Harrison Wood and Idar Andersen jump clear after 5 kilometres. Ander Okamika and Georg Steinhauser rejoin them and the five open up a gap of 2 minutes.

The lead group is down to Andersen and Steinhauser on the finishing circuit. Marc Soler and Valentin Paret-Peintre go after them, but they can’t bridge the gap.

Steinhauser goes solo inside the last 30 kilometres. He is caught with 15 kilometres to go.

Stephen Williams strikes in the last climb up the Montjuïc. The GC favourites rejoin him after the top. More riders come across.

João Almeida counters an attack by Enric Mas. He rides ahead of the group for awhile before he is caught. The race then comes down to a sprint and it’s Tadej Pogacar who powers to his fourth stage win of the week. He also pockets the GC triumph, almost 4 minutes ahead of Mikel Landa.
