Vuelta 2020 Route stage 1: TTT in Utrecht

Vuelta a España stage 1 Friday 14 August - The Vuelta a España opens with a team time trial of 23.7 kilometres in Utrecht, the Netherlands. While featuring an number of sharps curves, the route is as flat as can be.

The Spanish Grand Tour kicks off with a team time trial, so it is back to the familiar routine for the second consecutive year after 2018’s start with an individual time trial in Málaga. Last year’s TTT around the saltmarshes of Torrevieja was won by Astana, which catapulted Miguel Angel López into the red jersey.

The race starts and finishes near the Jaarbeurs. The first kilometres of the route run through the city centre before the teams continue to Overvecht, a post-war neighborhood in the northern part of Utrecht. Via two new neighbourhoods on the western side, Leidsche Rijn and De Meern, the TTT returns to the Jaarbeurs.

Hosting the Grand Depart of the 2015 Tour de France, Jaarbeurs is an exhibition and conference centre right next to ‘Utrecht Centraal’, the central railway station for the city. Back then, Rohan Dennis claimed the first yellow jersey after blitzing a short individual test against the clock.
