Vuelta 2016 stage 17Wednesday, September 7, 2016 – Stage 17 in the Vuelta a España features one 3rd category climb, two 2nd category climbs and a harsh and punchy finale. At 177.5 kilometres, the Castellón-Llucena race is set to conclude with a 4 kilometres wall at 12.9%. Steepest sector? 21%...

The peloton leaves from Castellón, in the 2015 edition the finish of a flat stage. Surprisingly Kristian Sbaragli outpowered top-favourite John Degenkolb.

Arrival place Llucena is also commonly known as Lucena del Cid. It’s a municipality in the province of Castellón, nicknamed ‘la perla de la montaña’, a.k.a the pearl of the mountain.

At the finish wait 10, 6 and 4 seconds for the first three riders, and 3, 2 and 1 seconds can be gained at the intermediate sprint after 168,6 kilometres.
