Vuelta a Burgos 2020 start list: Remco Evenepoel, Mark Cavendish and Sam Bennett to feature

The Vuelta a Burgos will see a number of WorldTour riders resume their season after the coronavirus break.

A field of slightly higher quality than usual is expected to take the start line in Burgos on Tuesday July 28, as teams begin to prepare for the major races coming up over the next few months.

Two hilly stages open the race, with a chance for sprinters on day two, before stage three sees a summit finish at 1500m of altitude.

Stage four is then another one for the fast men, before a final GC day on stage five, with the summit finish at Alto del Collado likely to decide to final general classification.

Iván Sosa returns for Ineos, the Colombian having won the last two editions of the race, the British squad also taking Richard Carapaz, only his second race for Ineos since signing.

Bahrain-McLaren will take both Mikel Landa and Mark Cavendish, while Deceuninck - Quick-Step boast Remco Evenepoel and Sam Bennett.

World champion Mads Pedersen will be in attendence for Trek-Segafredo, while former rainbow bands-wearer Alejandro Valverde will line up for Movistar.

Mitchelton-Scott will have Simon Yates vying for the GC, while Nairo Quintana (Arkéa-Samsic) will be hoping his good form hasn't abandoned him over the break.

Most teams have confirmed their squads but there are a few who have yet to do so.
