Vuelta a Espana 2021, la startlist e i favoriti

Partirà sabato 14 agosto, da Burgos, la Vuelta a Espana 2021, terzo Grand Tour della Stagione. Sono 23 le squadre al via: le 19 WorldTour e le 4 Professional Alpecin-Fenix, Burgos BH, Caja Rural-RGA ed Euskaltel-Euskadi.

La lotta tra i favoriti vede due corridori in primo piano: si tratta di Primoz Roglic ed Egan Bernal. Il primo, sloveno della Jumbo-Visma, punta deciso al tris consecutivo, avendo già vinto le ultime due edizioni e si presenta al via con una grande condizione di forma palesata ai Giochi Olimpici di Tokyo 2020, conclusi con una medaglia d’oro nella cronometro.

Il secondo, colombiano della Ineos Grenadiers, vuole completare la conquista della Tripla Corona, avendo già vinto Tour e Giro. Al loro fianco, due autentiche corazzate e, per quanto concerne la formazione britannica, si segnalano anche la presenza di Richard Carapaz e Tom Pidcock.

Chi potrà impensierire i due? Tra i nomi più in voga, sembrano esserci quelli di Mikel Landa (Bahrain-Victorious), al cui fianco ci sarà anche Damiano Caruso, Miguel Angel Lopez (Movistar), reduce da un Tour molto deludente, Alexander Vlasov (Astana), Hugh Carthy (EF Nippo), David De La Cruz (UAE Team Emirates).

In gara c’è anche Fabio Aru (Qhubeka NextHash), all’ultima corsa in carrierae, per restare in casa Italia, Giulio Ciccone capitano della Trek-Segafredo).
