Henok Mulubrhan secured his third top-15 finish of the 2026 Vuelta a España on Tuesday, placing 15th on Stage 10 after a demanding 184.7-kilometre route from Alcaraz to Elche de la Sierra.
The Eritrean crossed the line in the lead group in 4:07:41, recording the same time as stage winner Bastien Tronchon. The result follows his 15th place on Stage 5 and 14th on Stage 8, extending a consistent run in the race’s selective fast finishes.
Mulubrhan climbed six places to 59th in the general classification, with his deficit to race leader Enric Mas unchanged at 1:07:09. He is 62nd in the points classification with seven points.
XDS Astana placed three riders inside the stage’s top 15. Alessandro Romele finished fifth, while Yevgeniy Fedorov took 12th after a late attack that was caught within sight of the line. Mulubrhan completed the team’s strong finish in 15th.
Stage 11 takes the peloton 153.8 kilometres from Cartagena to Lorca on Wednesday. The flatter course is expected to favour the sprint teams and could offer Mulubrhan another opportunity if he remains with the front group.
