Remco Evenepoel looks set to win the 2022 Vuelta a Espana after retaining his overall lead as Richard Carapaz soloed to victory on stage 20.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Belgian, 22, finished two seconds behind his main rival for the red jersey, Spain’s Enric Mas. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Evenepoel leads the general classification by two minutes and five seconds, with Juan Ayuso in third.<\/span><\/p>\n

He now just needs to finish Sunday’s processional final stage into Madrid to claim his first Grand Tour win.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl rider was untroubled on the last mountainous test of this year’s race, which included five categorised climbs on the 181km route from Moralzarzal to Puerto de Navacerrada.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ecuador’s Carapaz, who will win the King of the Mountains competition, displayed his improving form to ride clear of Colombia’s Sergio Higuita on the final climb before holding off a chasing group containing the main GC riders to collect his third stage win of the race.<\/span><\/p>\n

Evenepoel is also set to win the white jersey for the best young rider while Denmark’s Mads Pedersen is poised to claim the green sprint jersey.<\/span><\/p>\n
