France’s Bastien Tronchon won a thrilling bunch sprint to take stage 10 of the Vuelta a Espana.<\/b><\/p>\n
The Groupama-FDJ United rider held off Magnus Cort Nielsen and Thibau Nys to cross the line first in a photo finish, with Wout van Aert edged off the podium.<\/p>\n
With a kilometre of the 184.7km route from Alcaraz to Elche de la Sierra remaining, Astana’s Yevgeni Fedorov and Xabier Azparren of Q36.5 broke clear of the peloton.<\/p>\n
However, they were caught just before the line with Tronchon timing his sprint to perfection to claim the stage victory.<\/p>\n
“I launched my sprint and I just finished it on the line, but I wasn’t sure if there was some guys in front or not, so I did not put my hands in the air,” Tronchon said.<\/p>\n
“That’s crazy, I can’t believe it. The last two days were really hard for me and today I was good, and I said to [team-mate] Guillaume [Martin] go full gas until you die and I take the win, so it’s crazy.”<\/p>\n
Spain’s Enric Mas, riding for Movistar, retains the red jersey as leader of the general classification, more than a minute clear of nearest challenger Primoz Roglic of Red Bull-Bora-hansgrohe.<\/p>\n
British rider Oscar Onley of Netcompany Ineos is fourth, two minutes and two seconds down on Mas.<\/p>\n
Wednesday’s 11th stage from Cartagena to Lorca is 153.8km and is largely flat so, despite a category three climb up Morron de Totana, should suit the sprinters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
