France's Bastien Tronchon triumphs in a thrilling bunch sprint to win stage 10 of the Vuelta a Espana.
Bastien Tronchon, representing Groupama-FDJ United, secured a thrilling victory in stage 10 of the Vuelta a Espana through a close bunch sprint. The 184.7km route from Alcaraz to Elche de la Sierra saw Astana's Yevgeni Fedorov and Q36.5's Xabier Azparren attempt to break away, but were caught just before the finish line. Tronchon timed his sprint perfectly, claiming the stage win.
The Team Visma-Lease a Bike rider expressed his surprise and delight, stating that it was a crazy day after two challenging days before. Spain's Enric Mas retained the leader's red jersey, leading by over a minute over Primoz Roglic of Red Bull-Bora-hansgrohe. British cyclist Oscar Onley of Netcompany Ineos came in fourth place, two minutes and two seconds behind Mas.
