Rodriguez chasing race leader Pogacar
Carlos Rodriguez was the only rider able to react as Pogacar accelerated on a 10% climb and gave chase to the UAE Team Emirates rider.
The Spanish youngster kept the pressure on the solo leader and was able to hold off the peloton until the final 25 kilometres, when he was caught, with Narvaez was able to join a counter attack which escaped the peloton and led the chase.
However, with a lead around one minute, Pogacar managed to hold on to win the race, with Narvaez battling to sixth, with Rodriguez finishing 20th.
