Davide Cimolai won the second stage of the Vuelta a Castilla y León, which ended in a sprint in the town of Villada in Palencia.
The race unfolded in a similar way to yesterday, with the wind taking center stage. A breakaway of 10 riders managed to break through. Guillaume Boivin (Israel CA), Jetse Bol and Jesús Ezquerra (Burgos-BH), Diego Ochoa (Manzana Postobon), Brenton Jones (Delko Marseille), Ángel Sánchez (W52-FC Porto), Gotzon Martín (Euskadi), Paco Mancebo (Matrix-Powertag), Henrique Casimiro (Efapel), and Frederico Figueiredo (Sporting-Tavira) each had a lead of almost seven minutes.
However, the trailing peloton was again cut off by the Movistar Team's strong pace and the crosswind, which left them practically down to 25 riders. The breakaway was ended within the final 15 kilometers after a constant battle. At the finish, and after the group split in two again, Cimolai faced no opposition to win ahead of Grosu and Bennati.
