It also stands out for the excellent role played by Urko Berrade (Kern Pharma); the Iruindarra, twelfth in this fourth day of racing, is fourth overall, 41 seconds behind Kuss.

Vine’s victory was brilliant, as well as emotional, because the Australian rider was making his return to the peloton in this Vuelta a Burgos, after the accident he suffered in the Itzulia, four months ago. As regards the general classification, it seemed that Poole would be able to take the purple leader’s jersey, but, in the second half of the time trial, he was unable to maintain the pace of the first stage of the day, and, finally, he was five seconds behind the first place held by Sepp Kuss, who was fifteenth in the stage.
