The 2023 La Vuelta Femenina (officially La Vuelta Femenina by Carrefour.es) was the first edition of La Vuelta Femenina, a cycling stage race which takes place in Spain. The race took place from 1 to 7 May 2023, and was the 15th event in the 2023 UCI Women's World Tour.
The race was organised by Unipublic and Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), which also organises the men's Vuelta a España. La Vuelta Femenina replaced the stage race (previously one day race) Challenge by La Vuelta, which was staged at the same time as the men's tour.
The race was won by a rampant Nonce Annemiek van Vleuten of Movistar Team, making her the first woman to win all three of the major stage races in women's cycling (La Vuelta Femenina, Tour de France Femmes and Giro d'Italia Donne). She beat her Dutch rival Demi Vollering of SD Worx by just nine seconds, with Italian Gaia Realini of Trek–Segafredo in third place.
Teams
12 UCI Women's WorldTeams were automatically invited, joined by 12 UCI Women's Continental Teams (9 of them from Spain). The teams were announced on 3 March 2023.[2]
On 26 April, Zaaf Cycling Team withdrew their entry following allegations of unpaid wages.[3] Two days later, the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) revoked Zaaf's licence as they lacked the required number of riders.[4] 23 teams therefore took part in the race.[5][3]

Route and stages
In February 2023, the route was announced by race director Fernando Escartín,[6] who also confirmed that the race will be sponsored by supermarket Carrefour.[7] The race was the first edition of La Vuelta Femenina, however the media noted that the race had grown from the previous Challenge by La Vuelta races.[8]
The race started in Torrevieja on the Costa Blanca[9] with a team time trial, before heading north with stages through Castilla–La Mancha, Community of Madrid and Castile and León. The final two stages took place in Cantabria and Asturias, with a decisive final climb up the Lagos de Covadonga, a 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) ascent with an average gradient of 7.4%.[6][10][11] The first rider to the top of the Lagos de Covadonga climb was awarded the Cima Estela Domínguez,[12] honouring the Spanish rider who was killed while training in 2023.[13]
The previous Challenge by La Vuelta events had been criticised by the women's peloton for not being challenging enough.[14] Three-time Giro Donne winner and 2022 Tour de France Femmes winner Annemiek van Vleuten praised the 2023 route, calling it "a very complete Vuelta",[15] and welcomed that the inclusion of the Lagos de Covadonga climb on the final stage, stating "to end in such a famous location is essential for the race".[16]

Race overview
Prior to the start of the race, Annemiek van Vleuten, Demi Vollering, Gaia Realini, Mavi García, Kasia Niewiadoma and Juliette Labous were all named as pre-race favourites for the general classification (GC),[18][19] with Charlotte Kool, Emma Norsgaard and Marianne Vos tipped for the points classification.[19] Potential contender for the general classification Elisa Longo Borghini announced that she would miss the race due to a stomach bug.[20]
For the first time in 2023, each team had 7 riders following a UCI rule change mandating this for events longer than six days.[21] The Zaaf Cycling Team withdrew their entry prior to the start of the event following allegations of unpaid wages.[3] Consequently, 161 riders from 23 teams were present at the start of the race.[3]
Stage 1
- 1 May 2023 — Torrevieja, 14.5 km (9.0 mi) (TTT)[22]
The first stage of the inaugural edition of La Vuelta Femenina featured a team time trial (TTT) with a length of 14.5 kilometres (9.0 mi) on the streets of Torrevieja. The course was described as "straightforward", with media noting the rarity of team time trials in the UCI Women's World Tour.[23]
The Sopela Women's Team was the first team off the start ramp, one of nine Spanish teams in the race. Liv Racing TeqFind was the first team to set a time faster than 19 minutes, with Team Jayco–AlUla then beating that time by 11 seconds. The fifteenth team to start was Team Jumbo–Visma, with four of their riders (led by Briton Anna Henderson) setting a time over 30 seconds faster than Jayco–AlUla. None of the eight teams remaining were able to better this time, with Canyon–SRAM getting the closest, setting a time just 1 second slower.[24][25]
Jumbo–Visma therefore won the stage, with Henderson taking the red jersey as the race leader.[24] Amongst the GC contenders, Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon–SRAM) was the fastest, eight and eleven seconds ahead of Gaia Realini (Trek–Segafredo) and Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar Team), respectively. The rest of the potential contenders finished within 40 seconds of Jumbo–Visma.[24][25]

Stage 2
- 2 May 2023 — Orihuela to Pilar de la Horadada, 105.8 km (65.7 mi)[26]
The second stage took the riders from Orihuela to Pilar de la Horadada over a mostly flat course, with the fourth-category climb of Puerto de Rebate (7.6km at 1.2%) located inside the last 20 kilometres.[26]
Early in the stage, a four rider breakaway formed, eventually gaining over a minute on the peloton. However, fear of crosswinds meant that the peloton chased and caught the majority of the break with around 50 kilometres remaining. In light of the closeness of the GC, the bonus seconds available at the intermediate sprint were highly fought over. Femke Markus (SD Worx) took six bonus seconds as first across the line, and her sister Riejanne Markus (Team Jumbo–Visma) took the virtual GC lead after claiming four bonus seconds.[27][28]
Jade Wiel (FDJ–Suez) took the single point available at the top of the Puerto de Rebate, taking the first polka-dot jersey as the leader of the Queen of the Mountains (QoM) classification. The peloton reformed heading into the finish at Pilar de la Horadada, anticipating a bunch sprint. In the final sprint, Chloé Dygert (Canyon–SRAM) gained a gap after attacking with around 500 metres. Marianne Vos (Team Jumbo–Visma) gave chase, catching up to Dygert with around 100 metres to go – however Charlotte Kool (Team DSM) used Vos' slipstream to outsprint both riders to win the stage.[27][28]
Vos took the red GC jersey thanks to the 6 bonus seconds available at the finish line, with fifty one riders within a minute of the GC lead. Kool took the lead of the points classification following her stage victory.[27][28]

Stage 3
- 3 May 2023 — Elche de la Sierra to La Roda, 158 km (98 mi)[29]
The third stage of the race was the longest of the race, taking the riders from Elche de la Sierra to La Roda over a flat course with no QoM points available.[29]
A headwind ensured that no breakaways formed in the first 60 kilometres. However, with around 100 kilometres to go, the course turned and tail-crosswinds began to affect the riders. Movistar worked with Jumbo–Visma to cause a split, with Kristen Faulkner (Team Jayco–AlUla), Marta Cavalli (FDJ–Suez) and Trek–Segafredo teammates Amanda Spratt, Lizzie Deignan and Gaia Realini falling on the wrong side. The gap between the groups grew to around a minute with 60 kilometres remaining. The front peloton had around 50 riders, and teams worked together to ensure a high pace to maximise damage.[30][31]
The high pace led by Team DSM then caused another split, dropping Évita Muzic (FDJ–Suez) and Silvia Persico (UAE Team ADQ) among others. At the intermediate sprint with around 20 kilometres to go, Marianne Vos took the points at the head of the front group, with Persico's group around 25 seconds back and the group led by Trek–Segafredo a further minute behind. Entering the final kilometre, only 29 riders remained in the front group.[30][31]
In the final sprint, Vos took the stage win, beating Kool and Dygert in the sprint finish. Vos retained her lead in the GC and Points classifications, with Wiel retaining her polka-dot jersey owing to the lack of QoM points available. The crosswinds had caused substantial damage to some GC riders hopes, with Persico losing 1' 32" of time and Trek–Segafredo riders (including Realini) losing 2' 41". The stage had been the fastest UCI Women's World Tour race ever, at an average speed of 45.6 kilometres per hour (28.3 mph).[30][31]

Stage 4
- 4 May 2023 — Cuenca to Guadalajara, 133.1 km (82.7 mi)[32]
The fourth stage took the riders further north, with a hilly stage from Cuenca to Guadalajara with a third-category climb (Alto de Horche, 4km at 4.9%) located 12 kilometres from the finish.[32]
The hilly course lent itself to a breakaway, with a group gaining nearly 4 minutes. However the fast pace set by Jumbo–Visma in the peloton behind meant that it was no threat to the peloton. Some riders (such as Olympic champion Anna Kiesenhofer of Israel Premier Tech Roland) attempted to escape prior to Alto de Horche, the single categorised climb of the day, however all these attempts were caught prior to the bottom of the climb.[33][34]
On the climb, Movistar led the pace, causing Cavalli to be dropped. At the top of the climb, Elise Chabbey (Canyon–SRAM) took the QoM points, with Annemiek van Vleuten immediately attacking into the descent, with around 10 kilometres to the finish. She was immediately followed by her main GC rival Demi Vollering (SD Worx). A collection of attacks from GC contenders and counter attacks from the peloton followed, however all of these were caught by the peloton with around three kilometres remaining.[33][34]
In the final bunch sprint, Marlen Reusser (SD Worx) attacked with 500 metres to go, with Dygert following her. Vos in the red leader jersey then attacked, overtaking them both to take the stage win. Emma Norsgaard (Team Movistar) took second in Vos' slipstream, with Reusser taking third place. Vos extended her lead in the GC classification to 13 seconds, thanks to the bonus seconds available on the finish line. She also retained her lead in the points classification. Chabbey took the polka-dot jersey of the QoM classification.[33][34]

Stage 5
- 5 May 2023 — La Cabrera to Mirador de Peñas Llanas, Riaza, 129.2 km (80.3 mi)[35]
The fifth stage was the first mountain stage of the race, taking riders from La Cabrera to Mirador de Peñas Llanas, Riaza. Two categorised climbs featured in the stage – the first-category Puerto de Navafría (11.5km at 5.8%), with the stage finishing at the top of the second-category Mirador de Peñas Llanas (5km at 6.7%).[35]
The start of the first-category Puerto de Navafría climb was reached after just 40 kilometres, with an early breakaway caught by the peloton on the climb. The peloton then split, dropping the red jersey of Marianne Vos, as well as Niewiadoma and Persico. At the top of the climb, Élise Chabbey took more QoM points to extend her lead in the mountains classification. The Vos group was over two and a half minutes back.[36][37]
The gap gradually reduced to just 30 seconds, however the connection was not made prior to the bottom of the final climb, Mirador de Peñas Llanas. Gaia Realini led the front group, as riders gradually dropped off leaving a group of just 15 riders. After three kilometres of ascending, Demi Vollering took over from Realini and increased the pace – with only Annemiek van Vleuten and Ricarda Bauernfeind (Canyon–SRAM) able to keep up.[36][37]
In the final kilometre, van Vleuten attacked on the steepest section of the climb, however a counter attack by Vollering allowed her to win the stage by 3 seconds. Van Vleuten was second, with Bauernfeind third. Vollering therefore took the lead in the GC, with a 5 second lead over van Vleuten. Riejanne Markus (Team Jumbo-Visma) was third, 12 seconds behind Vollering. Chabbey retained her lead in the QoM classification (as well as moving up to 4th place overall), and Vos retained the green points classification jersey.[36][37]

Stage 6
Following a transfer to Spain's northern coast, the sixth stage of the race took the riders from Castro Urdiales to Laredo over a hilly course. It featured two categorised climbs – the second-category Alto de Fuente de las Varas (6.4km at 5.4%) and the second-category Puerto de Campo el Hayal (8.2km at 4.6%).[38] The key moment of the stage occurred just 35 kilometres into the stage, when race leader Demi Vollering (SD Worx) and some of her teammates opted to take a nature break – at the beginning of a crosswind section where Movistar had planned to attack.[39] A large gap of over a minute quickly opened up, with SD Worx unable to catch the leading group prior to the first climb.[40][41] On the Alto de Fuente de las Varas climb, Annemiek van Vleuten set a fast pace. Only 4 riders (including Gaia Realini of Trek–Segafredo and Évita Muzic of FDJ–Suez) were able to stay with her. The gap to the red jersey and her teammates doubled to nearly 2 minutes. At the subsequent intermediate sprint, Van Vleuten attacked, taking the six bonus seconds available – and only Realini was able to follow.[40][41] The pair rode together over the next climb – the second-category Puerto de Campo el Hayal – and descended towards the finish in Laredo. In the meantime, Vollering and her teammates chased hard to regain lost time, eventually joining the main chasing group.[40][41] At the finish in Laredo, Realini and van Vleuten sprinted for the stage victory, with the result being too close to call. After some confusion,[42] a photo finish declared Realini the winner of the stage, the first UCI Women's World Tour victory of her career. The chase group crossed the line 1' 04" behind the pair, containing Vollering and other Template:Abbr contenders such as Niewiadoma, Muzic, Mavi García (Liv Racing TeqFind) and Juliette Labous (Team DSM).[40][41] In the Template:Abbr, van Vleuten took the red jersey, with Vollering 1' 11" behind and Markus 12 seconds further back. Van Vleuten also took the lead in the Template:Abbr classification, with Vos retaining the points classification jersey.[40] Following the stage, SD Worx accused other teams of "capitalizing on a toilet break" while their riders were stopped,[43] with Movistar explaining that they had always planned to attack at that particular section.[39][41] Vollering noted that she was "hungry for revenge" on the final stage to Lagos de Covadonga.[44] Stage 7
The final stage of the race took the riders from Pola de Siero to Lagos de Covadonga. It featured two climbs, the second-category La Colada Moandi (12.5km at 4.6%), with a mountain finish at the top of the "category H" climb of Lagos de Covadonga (12.5km at 6.9%).[45] An early breakaway was caught before the first climb of the day, the second-category La Colada Moandi. On the climb, SD Worx set a high pace so that by the top of the climb only 14 remained. However, this group included key contenders including Demi Vollering, Annemiek Van Vleuten, Gaia Realini, Kasia Niewiadoma, Silvia Persico, Mavi García and Évita Muzic.[46] On the descent, Marlen Reusser and Loes Adegeest (FDJ–Suez) were able to rejoin, and Reusser then worked with Niewiadoma to establish a break. This grew to over a minute as dropped riders caught up to the front group. Prior to the final climb of Lagos de Covadonga, Movistar and Jumbo-Visma worked to catch the pair.[46] Starting the climb, Movistar led the pace in defence of the red jersey wearing van Vleuten, however Vollering then took over at the head of the race – quickly dropping all but 7 riders. The strong pace by Vollering continued up the climb, with Realini and van Vleuten following her as more riders were dropped. On the steeper parts of the climb, attacks by Realini caused van Vleuten to be dropped. Through the mist at the top of the climb, Vollering continued to push to the top, needing to beat van Vleuten by 1' 12" to take the Template:Abbr win.[46] Realini was dropped in the last kilometre, and Vollering rode solo to take the stage win at the summit. Realini finished 11 seconds behind Vollering, however van Vleuten emerged from the mist to cross the line 56 seconds after Vollering, taking the overall victory by just 9 seconds. As well as third place overall, Realini had taken the Template:Abbr classification. Riejanne Markus took fourth place overall, with strong performances by Ricarda Bauernfeind and Évita Muzic on the stage elevating them to 5th and 6th place overall.[46][47] In the final general classification, Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar Team) won the La Vuelta Femenina ahead Demi Vollering (Template:Ct) by just 9 seconds while Gaia Realini was third at over two and a half minutes down. Vollering did retain the UCI Women's World Tour leaders jersey. Van Vleuten's victory made her the first woman to win all three of the major stage races in women's cycling (La Vuelta Femenina, Tour de France Femmes and Giro d'Italia Donne). Realini won the mountains classification while Marianne Vos (Template:Ct) won the points classification. The team classification was won by Template:Ct as the team with the lowest aggregate time among their three best-placed riders.[46][48] Out of 161 starters, 127 finished the event.[48] Classification leadership tableClassification standings
