Chris Froome celebrated his second stage victory at the 71st edition of the "Vuelta a España".

The British cyclist was the fastest at the 19th stop, the individual time trial, which was run on the route Shavia - Kalp, 37 kilometers long.

However, the real winner is Colombian Nairo Quintana, who won 11th place, with a gap of 2 minutes and 16 seconds.

The Movistar team member thus kept the red shirt and the leading place in the overall standings, with a minute and 21 seconds better time than Froome.

Two stages before the end of the race, Alberto Contador is also in the competition for the title, who is 3 minutes and 43 seconds behind Quintana.

The penultimate, 20th stage is driven tomorrow, from Benidorm to Aitan (193,2 km) in the Bethesda Cordillera.
