The Back to Spain enters its definitive stages and the Colombian Miguel Angel ‘Superman’ Lopez will burn the last cartridges for trying to get on the podium of the race or finish as far ahead as possible.
The competition will have this Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday the last three mountain fractions to do damage and so that the boyacense has the illusion of winning in one of these peaks.

This Wednesday, the race will face the day between Aracena and the Monastery of Tentudía, of 162 km, fraction of a single climb.
At the end, cyclists will find the only climb of the day, 10 km long and with ramps of up to 12 percent incline.
Although it is not a port that is marked to do damage, it is clear that at this point in the competition the forces are undermined and a fainting could be definitive.
Thursday is a tough stage. It will have three mountain passes, one of the second category and two of the first category, the last of them at the finish line, in the section between Trujillo and Alto del Piornal, 192 km.
The last two ascents will be key, as there is no rest, once you get off the 13.5 km mountain, the final climb will begin, ideal for attacks from a distance.
The climb to the finish is 13.5 km, with average ramps of 5 percent, but maximum of 100 percent incline.
And on Saturday the Vuelta ends with one of the important stages. Talavera of the Queen and Talavera of the Queen138 km, short and demanding.
Five mountain passes will be crossed, two of the second and three of the third, the last one at the finish line. From km 83 the stage will not have flat terrain, there will be constant ups and downs where you cannot lose the wheel.
López is one of those who best finishes the race and this is confirmed by the statistics. He is 3 min 23 s away from Enrique Mas, which is third, far, but it is not known. The podium is not clear.
What is seen as a great option is fifth place, since it is only 8 seconds from Carlos Rodriguez. But he also has the possibility of ascending to the fourth square, the one held by John Ayuso, who separates the boyacense by 35 s. All to be seen.
