Damiano Caruso won the ninth stage of the Vuelta, Puerto Lumbreras-Alto de Velefique, 188 km, finishing uphill after an ascent of 13 km with peaks of 15%. The Sicilian, after second place in the Giro d’Italia and 24th place in the road test at the Tokyo Games, is back as protagonist in a mountain stage.
