Lotta sul filo dei secondi fino alla fine per il Giro dei Paesi Baschi 2017. La temuta crono conclusiva lascia tutti con il fiato sospeso sino all’ultimo visti i distacchi ridottissimi con cui gli uomini di classifica si sono presentati alla partenza. Nella mischia si infila anche Primoz Roglic (LottoNL-Jumbo), che chiude la prova in prima posizione, conquistando così il suo secondo successo parziale in pochi giorni. Alle sue spalle Alejandro Valverde (Movistar), che nella seconda parte rimonta e distanzia Alberto Contador (Trek-Segafredo), leader provvisorio all’intermedio.
Grazie al secondo posto di giornata, il murciano conquista dunque la classifica generale di una delle poche corse spagnole che non aveva sinora vinto in carriera, davanti al madrileno e all’ex compagno Ion Izagirre (Bahrain-Merida), terzo anche nella crono. Buona prova oggi anche di Diego Ulissi (UAE Team Emirates), che chiude la crono in ottava posizione.
