Thomas Silva (XDS Astana) pulled away from a reduced peloton on the uphill drag into Lubián and won Clásica Castilla y León on Sunday.
Roger Andrià (Movistar) could not match a final acceleration of the 24-year-old from Uruguay and took second, just ahead of Silva’s teammate Christian Scaroni.
Silva recently won his first Grand Tour stage with help from a lead-out by Scaroni on stage 2 of the Giro d’Italia. A strong closing charge by the duo on Sunday was similar to the day before, when Silva also won Clásica de Ordizia – Ordiziako Klasikoa and Scaroni finished fourth.
The 190.6km route began from the plains of north-western Spain at Benavente and headed directly west into the rugged Sanabria mountain terrain for a finish in Lubián. Five categorised climbs sprinkled the hilly course, with a trio of category 3 ascents on a circuit in the final 48 kilometres. The Castrelos (3km at 5.2%) climb left just 4km to the finish, a downhill marked by a stiff uphill final 1,000 metres to the conclusion in Lubián.
After a group of seven riders formed an early breakaway, a trio had pulled away headed to the final 40km and holding a 1:25 margin on the peloton – Rayan Boulahoite (TotalEnergies), Adrián Benito (Polti VisitMalta) and Viacheslav Ivanov (Feirense-Beeceler).
The trio were no match for more climbs and charging peloton, now reduced to around 35 riders, as the hilly circuit began. It was a full reset with 18km to go.
Multiple attacks ensued but no one got away as the WorldTour teams wanted a sprint. And that is what they got, with XDS Astana and Movistar loading riders at the front of the field for the finale.
