The Vuelta Femenina’s overall leader, Marianne Vos, won a dramatic and fast-paced third stage but Lizzie Deignan lost ground as crosswinds caused chaos.

The day was raced at blistering speeds, with the lead group completing the 158km in under three-and-a-half hours. Vos (Jumbo-Visma) was first over the line in the red jersey, beating stage two winner Charlotte Kool (Team-DSM) and Chloe Dygert (Canyon–SRAM) in a sprint.
