The wait for Enric Mas, Mikel Landa and all of Spain has come to an end. The Vuelta was conquered by the Spaniard Enric Mas, who became the first rider from the country to win the competition since Alberto Contador in 2015.
Mas's victory was secured in the penultimate stage of the race, consolidating his position in the overall standings and guaranteeing the long-awaited title for Spanish cycling after years of foreign dominance.
In addition to Enric Mas, rider Mikel Landa is also mentioned as an important part of this Spanish achievement in the competition, representing the nation's success in this year's circuit.
The feat marks the end of a long nine-year period without a Spaniard at the top of the Vuelta podium, since Alberto Contador lifted the trophy in 2015.
