Vuelta 2025: Stage 4 to arrive in France, general classification

For the moment, this fourth stage is a difficult one for the riders who are unable to break away. Only one rider finally managed to break away a few minutes ago, the Spaniard Sinuhé Fernandez. The teams of the day's two favorites, Mads Pedersen and Jasper Philipsen, are riding at the front of the peloton to control the race.

A technical issue beyond our control prevents us from seeing the rankings at the bottom of our page, here is the general classification of this Vuelta with Gaudu very close to taking the leader's red jersey if he finishes 9 places ahead of Jonas Vingegaard.

After three days in Italy, the Tour of Spain moves on to France for a 4th stage, which will start in Susa, Italy, and finish in Voiron, Isère. While the first part of the stage is tricky at the foot of the Alps, with the Puerto Exiles, a 5.8-kilometer climb with an average gradient of 6.2%, then the Col de Montgenèvre, 9 kilometers long with an average gradient of 5.6%. A 14-kilometer false flat will then lead to the ascent of the Col du Lautaret, with its 9.2 kilometers at 5%. At the summit, there are 130 kilometers left with a second part of the race that will be easier.
