Quintana defies Contador to take Tour of Catalonia
Print Edition
NAIRO Quintana of Colombia held on to his lead over Alberto Contador to win the Tour of Catalonia for the first time yesterday.
Quintana successfully defended his seven-second advantage over the Spaniard in yesterday’s final stage, an eight-lap ride through 136.4 kilometers up and down the Montjuic hill overlooking Barcelona. Russian rider Aleksei Tsatevich won the seventh stage in a sprint with Primoz Roglic of Slovenia. Movistar rider Quintana stayed close to Contador from the start yesterday and his lead was never in jeopardy. He finished with the same seven-second advantage he carried into the closing stage. Quintana took the overall lead in the Pyrenees on Thursday. Daniel Martin of Ireland, the 2013 winner, finished third overall — 17 seconds behind Quintana. Defending champion Richie Porte of Australia was fourth. Tour de France champion Chris Froome finished eighth overall, 46 seconds behind Quintana.
