Monday, September 5th - Stage 16 156.4km
After a very mountainous weekend, the Vuelta comes down from the mountains of Aragon and heads to the Valencian coast in order to face the final and decisive week of competition.
A flat stage, ideal for escapes, with one only point-incurring 3rd category climb with a long slightly downhill descent to Vinaroz, before arriving at the Peñiscola finish-line.
Exhaustion will begin to show, not only among the best riders, but among everyone. It will be a favourable day for sprinters who, once again, will have the sea and the beach as the final backdrop of this sixteenth stage.
