Vuelta a España 2021 stage one time trial start times
The start times for the opening stage of the 2021 Spanish Grand Tour
The 2021 Vuelta a España kicks off with a 7.1km-long individual time trial in Burgos.
The flat course will give us the first time gaps in the general classification, the likes of Primož Roglič, who recently won time trial gold at the Tokyo Olympics, will be one of the favourites to take the stage and first red jersey as he looks to win his third Spanish Grand Tour title in a row.
The first rider off the start ramp is Burgos BH's Pelayo Sanchez at 17.44 Spanish time (subtract an hour for British Summer Time) and the last off is Roglič at 20.47.
Below are selected rider start times followed by all rider start times for the opening race against the clock.

Jonny was Cycling Weekly's Weekend Editor until 2022.
I like writing offbeat features and eating too much bread when working out on the road at bike races.
Before joining Cycling Weekly I worked at The Tab and I've also written for Vice, Time Out, and worked freelance for The Telegraph (I know, but I needed the money at the time so let me live).
I also worked for ITV Cycling between 2011-2018 on their Tour de France and Vuelta a España coverage. Sometimes I'd be helping the producers make the programme and other times I'd be getting the lunches. Just in case you were wondering - Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen had the same ham sandwich every day, it was great.
