Overview
- Marcel Camprubí (Q36.5) took the elite men's national title, outsprinting Joel Nicolau (Caja Rural) for the win with Urko Berrade (Kern Pharma) third.
- The race was decided by a late selection that began when Igor Arrieta's move with about 47 km to go formed a leading group that included Camprubí, Nicolau and Berrade.
- In the final 20 km Berrade attacked and others tried to reconnect, but Camprubí produced a powerful final burst on the last climb to take the victory.
- The championships used a 26.5 km circuit after an opening section, totaling 211 km and 3,160 m of elevation, a route that rewarded aggressive team moves from outfits such as Caja Rural and Q36.5.
- Defending champion Iván Romeo withdrew late with a flu-like illness, several other category titles were awarded at Sabiñánigo, and Camprubí's new jersey will raise his profile ahead of the summer race calendar.
