Over cycling news, Dutch rider Fabio Jakobsen has won Stage 4 of the Vuelta Espana, while Nicolas Roche retained the overall lead in the event.

The Dutch grabbed his Grand Tour Stage as he crossed the finishing line after 4 hours and 4 minutes. Jakobsen just about edged Sam Bennett of Ireland to deny him back-to-back stage wins, as Max Walscheid settled for 3rd.

Meanwhile, Roche, also from Ireland, finished safely on the peloton to retain his overall lead, as the top 10 riders in the general classification remain unchanged. Stage 5 of the event is a hilly 170 Kilometers and will be held on Wednesday. The 21-stage Grand Tour tournament concludes in Madrid on the 15th of September.
