Vuelta 2015 Favourites stage 15: Break away riders vs. GC guys

Expect the likes of Mike Landa, Bert-Jan Lindeman, Jelle Vanendert, Alessandro De Marchi, Rubén Plaza, Blel Kadri, Pierre Rolland and Fränk Schleck eyeing up a seat in the front group.
Are the escapees reeled in on the closing climb, then it will be up to the big men this Vuelta: Aru, Rodríguez, Chaves, Majka and Dumoulin.
*** Rubén Plaza, Pierre Rolland, Mikel Landa
** Alejandro Valverde, Fabio Aru, Nairo Quintana, Domenico Pozzovivo
