Enric Mas wins stage nine of La Vuelta a España

Enric Mas won the ninth stage of the 2026 Vuelta a España, a grueling 187.4-kilometer mountain stage finishing at Alto de Aitana. Mas, riding for Movistar Team, secured the victory after a decisive sprint against Oscar Onley, who finished second. Primož Roglič took third place, trailing Mas by 12 seconds in the stage.

Following this victory, Mas has solidified his position as the overall leader in the general classification, holding a 1 minute 18 second lead over Roglič. The race has seen a major shift in dynamics following the withdrawal of favorite Tadej Pogačar, who was forced to abandon the competition after a heavy crash during the eighth stage. Pogačar suffered a displaced fracture of the left clavicle, a stable C7 cervical fracture, and a concussion; he has since undergone successful surgery.

The competition is currently entering a rest day before resuming with the tenth stage from Alcaraz to Elche de la Sierra.
