Vuelta stage 16 - Haedo Wins in Roundabout Way

Hello again. Is the Vuelta still on? It seems so. I've not been able to watch it the last couple of days, but fortunately, thanks to the internets, I can read stuff, and pretend like I was there the whole time.

So, apart from a crash for J-Rod, Stage 16 went pretty much as expected, and ended in a sprint finish. Only there was a bit of confusion as to which way to go on that final roundabout, and some folks went a bit wrong. Oh well, it was only a sprint, so not as bad as when Robert Millar went the wrong way on a mountaintop finish back in 1988, which if you have enough time on your hands you can watch here.


Anyway, all of these shenanigans didn't make a whole lot of difference to the scores.

Here's how Stage 17 shaped up.
