Matthew Brennan made history by winning his fifth stage at the Vuelta a España on stage 17 in Seville. The British sprinter, riding for Visma-Lease a Bike, became the first fast rider to achieve this feat since Marcel Kittel in 2017, and the youngest rider to win five Grand Tour stages. Brennan also won the stage for the second consecutive day, marking Visma-Lease a Bike's seventh win at the Vuelta.
His victory came in a closely contested bunch sprint, with Jordi Meeus of Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe finishing in second place and Magnus Cort of Uno-X Mobility in third.
