Overview

• Organisers took official times at the 3 km mark, declared no stage winner and canceled the podium ceremony, with several mountain points voided.
• Large police deployments secured the finish area after spectators with Palestine flags pressed toward the course, and officers had earlier cleared protesters from the neutral zone.
• Jonas Vingegaard and Tom Pidcock were in front at the 3 km timing point, and Vingegaard extended his overall lead in the red jersey.
• Protests have repeatedly targeted the Israel‑Premier Tech team during this Vuelta, and a demonstrator-related incident a day earlier led to Simone Petilli crashing but continuing.
• Rider representatives (CPA), race officials and the UCI held talks on safety as authorities identified protesters, and teams warn of potential further disruptions on upcoming mountain stages such as the Angliru.
