Pogacar wins Vuelta Stage 8 as weather wreaks havoc in Andorra, Quintana moves into lead
Tadej Pogacar of UAE Team Emirates, riding his first Grand Tour, has won Stage 8 of the Vuelta a Espana on a day when the race encountered filthy weather in Andorra, with torrential rain on the final climb. Behind, Nairo Quintana of Movistar took second place on the summit finish at Alto Els Cortals d'Encamp, while his team-mate Alejandro Valverde was outsprinted for third place by Jumbo-Visma's Primoz Roglic.
Quintana takes the race lead, but with Roglic one of the favourites for the individual time trial when racing resumes on Tuesday after tomorrow's rest day, the Colombian's stay in the red jersey is likely to be a short one.

Maybe they thought her piece was rather heady and raw - it needed more maturation?
Why do these self-entitled motorists think they should be blocking a pavement. Doesn't their "road tax" pay for them to block the road.
I went for the slight upgrade of an Axis (mk4), that extra little bit of power and the TAP controls. Over 6 years of trouble free daily usage....
