Oscar Onley battled hard with the support of his teammates on the penultimate stage of the Vuelta a Espana.<\/p>\n
The Scot dug deep after being distanced from the select General Classification group, but was able to limit his losses across a mountainous Queen Stage with the help of his teammates.<\/p>\n
At the conclusion of the stage Onley now sits in sixth place overall, but was able to retain the white Young Rider’s jersey heading into Sunday’s finale in Granada.<\/p>\n
Jack Haig was joined by Carlos Rodriguez and early breakaway riders Embret Svestad-Bardseng and Lucas Hamilton to help measure the gap for Onley to the overall contenders.<\/p>\n
In the end a long-range attack from Sepp Kuss (Visma | Lease a Bike) saw the American jump up six places into fifth overall. Up ahead the breakaway went on to contest the stage, with Mikel Landa (Soudal – Quick-Step) claiming victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oscar Onley battled hard with the support of his teammates on the penultimate stage of the Vuelta a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":889610,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,85],"class_list":["post-889609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cycling","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/889609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=889609"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/889609\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/889610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=889609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=889609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=889609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
