Stage 9: Cistierna – Oviedo
Date: Sunday 28 August 2016
Length: 165km
Profile: Wavy with a mountain finish
Now it's time and the Vuelta 2016 is really picking up speed. After the fierce finale the day before, the next mountain finish awaits. For the ranking riders, regeneration will probably be the order of the day today, but you should still be on your guard, the terrain of the last 50km offers many opportunities for attacks, even if the time intervals will be marginal.
