This year is it the 75th edition of the Vuelta ciclista a España. It is overlapping with the 3rd week of the Giro 2020.

Traditionally the Vuelta mark the end of the Grand Tours season and more this year than most of the time due to the shortened racing season.

The Vuelta a España offers splendid landscape which makes it a pleasure to watch like the two other Grand Tours.
