Overview

• Government delegates detail the largest policing plan for a cycling event in the region, with 1,100 National Police, 711 municipal officers and reinforced Guardia Civil units.
• Road closures begin at 04:00 with extensive bus diversions, as the final stage enters Madrid around 17:15 for a nine-lap city circuit and a projected finish near 20:00 at Cibeles.
• Valladolid officials report two people briefly detained and 29 identified for proposed sanctions under Spain’s sports anti-violence law, which carries fines from €150 to €650,000.
• Police in Valladolid described most demonstrators as civic but cited attempts to enter the circuit and emphasized the lack of an officially communicated protest.
• This year’s race has faced repeated protest-related disruptions, including a suspended stage in Bilbao, brief stoppages near Angliru, a crash that forced Javier Romo to abandon, and route changes in later stages.
