Vuelta 2019: Withdrawals

Obviously, not all 176 contenders of the Spanish Grand Tour reached Madrid. Cyclingstage.com kept track of all riders who were forced to leave La Vuelta 2019 prematurely.

Mickaël Delage was the first rider to be forced out of the 2019 Vuelta a España. A high fever and a sore throat caused him to abandon the race. Since then prominent riders such as Steven Kruijswijk, Rigoberto Uran and Fabio Aru left La Vuelta for different reasons.

    I love watching the Vuelta, but would like to know why the Euskadi team are numbered over 200 when there are only 176 riders? The race has had some very exciting finishes so far. Looking forward to seeing next week’s racing. Well done Vuelta, everything is well organized.
