Ayuso Sprints to Vuelta Stage 12 Victory as Tensions Ease
Juan Ayuso achieved his second stage win at the Vuelta a Espana, sprinting to victory amid team tensions as UAE Team Emirates plans to end their collaboration this season.
- On Thursday, Juan Ayuso sprinted to victory in stage 12 from Laredo to Los Corrales de Buelna, outsprinting Javier Romo to claim his second win this year.
- UAE Team Emirates-XRG revealed on Monday that they will part ways with Juan Ayuso at season's end, with Ayuso saying he felt disrespected by the timing of the announcement.
- Ayuso and Romo broke clear for the final 25 kilometres of the 144.9km stage, with Brieuc Rolland, Groupama-FDJ, finishing 13 seconds back and Jonas Vingegaard, Visma-Lease a Bike, arriving over six minutes later.
- The general classification stayed unchanged, as Jonas Vingegaard retained a 50-second lead over Joao Almeida and Tom Pidcock remained six seconds further back, while Eddie Dunbar moved up to 41st overall after finishing 15th on the stage.
- After Wednesday's disrupted stage, Israel-Premier Tech started in Laredo despite pressure, and a 202.7km mountain stage to Angliru with three category-one climbs awaits.
