Jonas Vingegaard<\/a> will lead Visma-Lease a Bike<\/a> at the Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a<\/a>, which begins this Saturday, 23 August.<\/p>\n

Teams have begun to be announced for the 80th edition of the Spanish Grand Tour, ahead of three weeks of racing from Turin, Italy, to Madrid on 14 September<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Every squad has eight riders, with varying objectives; some teams aim for the overall win or top 10 on the general classification, while others aim for stage wins, sprints or otherwise.<\/p>\n

Vingegaard, second<\/a> at the recent Tour de France<\/a>, will attempt to win the Vuelta for the first time, to add to his two Tour crowns. Visma won the Giro d’Italia<\/a> this year through Simon Yates<\/a>, so would win a second Grand Tour of 2025 were they to triumph in Spain.<\/p>\n

The Dane will be joined by Matteo Jorgenson<\/a>, former winner Sepp Kuss<\/a>, Victor Campenaerts, Dylan van Baarle, Wilco Kelderman, Ben Tulett and Axel Zingle.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe overall win is our big goal, there\u2019s no need to be coy about that,\u201d Grischa Niermann, the team’s head of racing, said. \u201cJonas is our leader and our biggest chance for the overall victory. But with Sepp, we have a former winner at the start, and Matteo has recovered well after the Tour de France.”<\/p>\n

UAE Team Emirates-XRG, who won the Tour through Tadej Poga\u010dar<\/a>, announced their eight for the Vuelta earlier in August, with the Slovenian absent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They will be led by Jo\u00e3o Almeida and Juan Ayuso as they attempt to claim the red jersey; Almeida will be a top favourite alongside Vingegaard for overall victory.<\/p>\n

XDS Astana head to Spain with Harold Mart\u00edn Lopez, Sergio Higuita and Harold Tejada, while Intermarch\u00e9-Wanty bring Louis Meintjes and Dion Smith in a mixed squad.<\/p>\n

Movistar are without their big GC hope Enric Mas or former winner Nairo Quintana, but do come with Pablo Castrillo, a two-time stage winner at last year’s race.<\/p>\n
