Tour Of Spain: Kuss Clings Onto Red Jersey As Roglic Wins 17th Stage

Soudal Quick Step:  Sepp Kuss (Jumbo Visma) kept the overall leader's red jersey by just eight seconds over his team-mate Jonas Vingegaard, while Primoz Roglic won the 17th stage of the Tour of Spain cycle race.

Although Kuss finished 19 seconds behind Roglic and Vingegaard, he was able to cling onto the leader's jersey on the day he celebrated his 29th birthday, reports Xinhua.

As expected, the climb up the mythical Altu de L'Angliru produced tension and drama as the riders struggled up the steepest climb in the race. Although Kuss looked as if he would surrender the lead to his team-mate, he was able to find the strength to remain in touch with Vingegaard and Roglic in the last two kilometers.
