Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta Ciclista Del Sol 2015 Stage 5

Juan José Lobato (Movistar) claimed the fifth and final stage of this year’s Vuelta a Andalucia, after executing a well -timed, powerful sprint finish on the uphill finale in Alhaurín de la Torre.

The Spanish rider commenced a powerful attack in the closing 400 meters to overtake Edward Theuns (Topsport Vlaanderen-Baloise) and hold-off John Degenkolb (Giant-Alpecin) to claim an impressive victory, and his second stage win in this year’s race.

Meanwhile, Chris Froome (Sky) finished near the front of the main group to retain his two-second lead over Alberto Contador (Tinkoff-Saxo) to claim final overall victory.

Beñat Intxausti (Movistar) took third place on the final podium at 2:38 behind the leader.
