Rui Costa (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) won stage 15 to Lekunberri at the Vuelta a España, using every possible race tactic and then a final kick to beat Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain Victorious) and Lennard Kämna (Bora-Hansgrohe).
"This team has believed in me from the first moment. I started this season in good condition, and now one victory at the Vuelta a España, for me, is very important, and for the team. I'm so happy," Costa said.
Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) finished fourth on the stage, just two seconds back, after another day of aggression on the roads of Spain. He made early attacks and then forced the decisive move but eventually paid for his 48 hours on the final climb.
Sepp Kuss and his Jumbo-Visma controlled the breakaway and even responded to attacks from UAE Team Emirates to finish 2:52 behind and so keep the red jersey for Monday’s second rest day.
