Refresh

Hello cycling fans! Welcome to Cycli𝓡ngnews' live coverage of the opening stage of Vuelta a España. In it's 77th edition, the 2022 🦋grand tour starts in the Dutch city of Utrecht for a 23.3 km team time trial. 

There are 22 teams particཧipating in the evening time trial, with Burgos-BH leading th🐼em off at 6:30 p.m. local time. 

The unique team time trial stage opener is predicted to create substantial gaps between favourites after the first stage is complete. Here's a look at our detailed stage preview by Alasdair Fotheringham. 

And we're off! The first team🅰, Burgos BH, has gone down the start ramp to kick the Vuelta into motion.ဣ There will be four minute intervals in between team starts.

The Vuelta certainly likes their team time trials, because we can expect another one to kick off proceedings f🦩or the 2023 edition as well. However, next year the stage will take place in Barcelona. 

Three teams are out on course so far, after leaving the fireworks at the startin🦄g house behind. Israel - Premier Tech just set off, led by Chris Froome. Next up is Groupama 🌳- FDJ.

This is a pan flat course around the city of Utrecht. It's a similar course to the TTT in 20♑19 that was held around the saltmarsh⛎es of Torrevieja. That year, the stage was won by Astana and Miguel Angel López took the red jersey. 

Burgos-BH, the first team off, has gone through the intermediate checkpoint at 11km with a time of 12:58. The🍬y have all their riders still together. 

Arkea will start their Vuelta with one rider down. Nairo Quintana has decided to not take the start after testing positive for tramadol, even though according to UCI rules, he is allowed to compete in the Spanish grand tour. Here's the story

And Intermarché 𝄹- Wanty - Gobert Matériaux quickly bests the time of Burgos at the intermediate check, traveling 11 seconds faster. Cofidis is on the start line. 

The Groupama-FDJ team⛦ are the current leaders through the intermediate check. The team is flying, going almost 15 seconds faster than Israel - Premier Tech. They're averaging 53.1kph at the moment. 

T📖eam Burgos -BH was the first team to come across the line with a time of 26:38, however, they were quickly bested by Intermarche by a tough 32.74 seconds. 

Israel - Premier Tech finishes their 23.3km effort with the best time so far of 25:44. That's 21.5 seconds faster than Intermarche - Wanty- Goꦉbert. 

The rider🐷s are experience raindrops in some places on the course, and in other parts the roads remai⛄n dry. Intermarché - Wanty - Gobert Matériaux sit in provisional third - but we still have more than half of the teams to start. 

Arkea have finished their ride 46 seconds back on Groupama, who are our current leaders. The French team have se✨t the time to beat at ♍25:18.

BikeExchange - Jayco are doing a good ride at the moment. They're the fastest at the intermediate check with a 12:21. EF Education EasyಌPost are currently second, a good 19 second✃s off the Aussie squad's pace. 

Current TTT top 3:

Team BikeExchange - Jayco finish seven seconds faster than Groupama - FDJ with Simon Yates as their GC rider safely❀ across. The team averaged a smooth 55.5kph on the 23.3km course. &nb⛄sp;

Now Bora - hansgrohe are ❀out on course. Seven teams left to take the start, with Jumbo Visma setting out last. 

BikeExchange should be pleased with their ride. They've set up 2018 Vuelta a España winner Simon Yates quite well and remain in the hot seat with a 25:11.𒅌 

Bora-hansgrohe are up on BikeExchange's intermediate time by two seconds. That's good news for their GC guy, Jai ♔Hindley. 

Just four te🐎ams left to take🍒 the start: Ineos, Quick-Step, Movistar and Jumbo Visma. 

Ineos has started their TTT with Giro winner Richard Carapaz leading the team this year at the Vuelta. The Ecuadorian has just cemented a 3-year deal with American outfit, EF 🎶Educa🍬tion EasyPost. 

Bora comes across the finish line with five riders. It was super close, at the ꦕintermediate, but BikeExc♉hange holds onto their lead by 10 seconds. 

Movistar is off, but has already lost Gregor Mühlberge꧃r in the opening few kms. 

Jumbo Visma is off with the pressure of having defending Vuelta champion Primož Roglič with them. All teams have started. 

Ineos has completed a speedy first half of the race, heading through the intermediate with the new fastest time of 12:1💛4. That's 4.6 seconds better than B🍸ora. Can they hold it through the finish? 

The Utrecht crowds have grown since the start of the TTT. The atmosphere is incredible this evening as th𒆙e꧙y welcome the remaining teams. 

Quick-Step does one better than Ineos across the intermediate ꦕsplit, going three seconds faster. 

The😼 way Jumbo Visma are going, they should be around 20 seconds faster than Quick-Step. 

The Dutch team is being carried by a wave of sound from the hometown fans. They're 14 seconds faster than Quick-Step at🍎 the check point. 

Ineos finishes a whop💞ping 18 seconds faster than BikeExchange. They're the new team at th𝕴e top of the standings, but Jumbo Visma are still flying. 

Remco 🌠Evenepoel does a massive pull and brings Quick-Step to the finish line just .8 seconds ꦕbehind Ineos. 

Ineos 🏅are in the hot seat. They're also the first team to go 🃏under 25 minutes with a 24:53. 

Movistarꦐ crosses the line with five riders,ﷺ 30 seconds off the pace of Ineos. 

Jumbo Visma is at the line. No surprises here! They win the race 13 seconds aheaꦯd of Ineos.

Robert Gesink crossed the finish line first ahead of defending champion, Primoz Roglic, and so will be the first leader of the Vuelta a Espana in his home country of the Netherlands!&n💛bsp;

Jumbo Vism🉐a are off to a dominant start on this year's edition of the Vuelta a 🐼España. 

Robert Gesink - leader of the Vuelta a España after stage 1 TTT:

The Jumbo Visma squad are once again proving themselves as the team to beat, winning the stage 1 TTT! Tomorrow's stage of the Vuelta will be one for the sprinters.
