Castelldefels, Spain – French youngster Warren Barguil (Argos-Shimano) broke clear in the final kilometre of Friday's 169km ride from Valls to Castelldefels to claim the 13th stage of the Tour of Spain.
The 21-year-old was part of a breakaway group of 10 that controlled the second half of the stage but he made the telling break to seize his first professional stage win ahead of Rinaldo Nocentini (Ag2R) and Bauke Mollema (Belkin).
Race leader Vicenzo Nibali (Astana) finished along with the peloton 2mins 43secs back along with all the other major contenders in the general classification to maintain his 31 second advantage over Nicholas Roche (Saxo). – Sapa-AFP
