Stage 2

The road

How it was won

1. 147 km to go

   Ardales ends the break's day

   Pedraza jumps near the summit for the mountains points, but Movistar and Katusha have already cut six riders' three minutes down to one. It looks like a routine catch and a duel up the Caminito del Rey.

2. 230 km to go

   A huge crash with thirty to go

   Most of the peloton is caught out. Vincenzo Nibali is down; so is Paolo Tiralongo, bleeding heavily from the top of his head. After a long wait for bikes they set off again, and Nibali's chase back is a stage in itself.

3. 34 km to go

   Quintana lights it up

   Gautier's dig is shut down and Nairo Quintana goes with three kilometres left, dragging Nicolas Roche and Tom Dumoulin clear of the group.

4. 41 km to go

   Chaves comes across

   Set up perfectly by Orica, Esteban Chaves launches himself across the gap and nearly sails straight past all three. On the steepest ramps of the Caminito del Rey it is his fellow Colombian who cracks first.

5. 5At the line

   Two years, and a red jersey

   Roche's last-ditch attack goes backwards and Dumoulin opens first, but Chaves has the legs. Two years after a crash that nearly ended his career, he wins in Spain and takes the leader's jersey.
