Belgium's Jens Keukeleire (Orica-GreenEDGE) doubled up on stage wins at the Vuelta a Burgos after springing another well timed attack on the final climb of the day to take stage three. Meanwhile, Anthony Roux (FDJ) held on to his lead at the top of the general classification after finishing second behind Keukeleire.

The 175km testing stage between Villadiego and Complejo Kartico consisted of no less then six category-three climbs, presenting another difficult uphill finish for the riders that fractured the peloton.
