Cycling: Roglič concedes 10 sec and Vuelta leader's jersey to Carapaz
ALTO DE'L ANGLIRU - Slovenia's Primož Roglič fell back to second place overall at the Vuelta de Espana after the toughest stage of the Spanish race. He clocked in 10 seconds behind his main rival, fourth-placed Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz, with whom he was on neck-and-neck at the top of the general standings before stage 12. Victory in the 109.4 mountain stage went to British rider Hugh Carthy, who successfully attacked on the final climb to Alto de L'Angliru, which served up gradients up to 23%. Following a rest day on Monday, Tuesday will already bring the time trial and thus the main opportunity for Roglič, the defending Vuelta champion, to reclaim the red jersey from Carapaz.
