    No big changes to the general classification after stage seven of cycling's Vuelta a Espana

    No big changes to the general classification after stage seven of cycling's Vuelta a Espana


    EF Pro Cycling's Michael Woods has prevailed on the 160-kilometre route.

    Ineos Grenadiers rider Richard Carapaz continues to hold an 18-second lead in the general classification, with Kiwi George Bennett back up to 10th.

    Jumbo Visma's Primoz Roglic sits fourth place, 30 seconds off the red jersey, and says it probably helps him to have team-mate Bennett up high too.
