Jhonatan Narvaez climbed to fifth on stage 12 of La Vuelta after a strong ride in the breakaway.
The day was initially a fast one, with Oscar Rodriguez getting himself into a move that took a long time to settle, before Jhonatan Narvaez hopped across to make it two Grenadiers in the leading 10.
The day was defined by its one and only categorised climb, the Category One Estacion de Montaña de Manzaneda. On the mountain, and the Grenadiers would respond to attacks well, with Oscar riding selflessly for his teammate Narvaez. Pablo Castrillo (Equipo Kern Pharma) would launch and attack some 10 kilometres from the line, and quickly establish a gap.
Despite Narvaez upping the pace, and dragging a strong quartet clear, he was unable to bring the gap back, and the Ecuadorian would come home fifth on the day, with Oscar in 10th.
