After two near-misses, Belgian star Lotte Kopecky will be looking to convert her consistent form into a stage victory on the fourth day of racing at La Vuelta Femenina.
The 115-kilometer stage presents another hilly challenge for the peloton. The route concludes with a decisive uphill finish in the town of Antas de Ulla, a profile that could play directly into the hands of a powerful rider like Kopecky.
Kopecky has been a prominent figure in the opening stages, securing second-place finishes in both Stage 1 and Stage 3. These results demonstrate her excellent condition and ability to compete on varied terrain. The question now is whether she can take the final step to the top of the podium on a finish that seems tailor-made for her capabilities.
