BAIONA, Spain — Wout van Aert’s third stage win in the Spanish Vuelta this year was a special one, coming in front of his family.
Aert had a dominant performance through the 160-kilometer mountain stage from Ponteareas to Baiona in Spain’s northwest. He had already won the third and seventh stages. Van Aert’s first stage win had come in a sprint while the Vuelta was still in Portugal, and the second came with a reduced bunch in the southern Spanish region of Andalusia. This time, Van Aert got the better of Frenchman Quentin Pacher from team Groupama-FDJ, who was his last breakaway opponent.
