"After working for Primož Roglič in the 2024 Tour, then crashing out of the 2025 Giro d'Italia in the first week, it'd be fair to say that Australia's Jai Hindley has recently built up a fair amount of unfinished business with the Grand Tours - and at the 2025 Vuelta a España, the Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe racer is keen to put the record straight with a vengeance."
"Hindley was last seen in a Grand Tour on the side of a rainslicked road towards Naples in the Giro's first week. But the Giro was also where he won outright in 2022 and finished second in 2020, and together with a stage win and spell in yellow in the 2023 Tour de France, prior to crashes making getting to Paris [in seventh] a survival exercise, and Hindley could yet come back from Spain with a top GC result as well."
Jai Hindley arrives at the 2025 Vuelta a España determined to target a high general classification placing. Hindley crashed out of the 2025 Giro d'Italia in its first week and has had disrupted Grand Tour campaigns in recent seasons. He previously won the Giro in 2022, finished second in 2020, and took a stage plus time in yellow at the 2023 Tour de France. Hindley names Jonas Vingegaard as the principal favourite while noting João Almeida and Juan Ayuso as strong UAE contenders. Hindley expects an aggressive Vuelta and is motivated to convert form into a top GC result.
