Terrain tilts sprint as Brennan seals Vuelta stage 5 win for Visma
Matthew Brennan of Visma-Lease a Bike sprinted to victory on stage 5 of the Vuelta a España after a textbook leadout from Christophe Laporte and Wout van Aert. Brennan, 21, noted that certain terrain can reduce Tadej Pogačar’s usual sprint strength, helping fast men like him. It was Brennan’s second win in four days, underscoring Visma’s strong sprint-focused strategy.
