August 19/17 19:33 pm - Vuelta a Espana: Stage 1
Posted by Editoress on 08/19/17
BMC Racing Team made the most of the opening time-trial of the 72nd La Vuelta, Saturday at Nîmes: stage victory for the American team and first red jersey for Rohan Dennis. With a time of 15:58 over the 13.7km, BMC dominated Quick-Step Floors and Team Sunweb with a margin of six seconds. Chris Froome and Team Sky took the fourth place ahead of most of their rivals for the general classification. BMC already won the ITT in 2015. Dennis is the first Australian rider to wear the red jersey since Michael Matthews kept it for three days in 2014.
Svein Tuft was top Canadian with his Orica - Scott team finishing 5th at 17s back. Tuft sits 34th at 23 back in the GC.
