Abner González (Efapel Cycling) charged to the summit of Monte Farinha on stage 9 of the Volta a Portugal and claimed the victory on the queen stage.
Artem Nych (Sabgal-Anicolor) crossed the end six seconds again at Mondim de Basto subsequent to the Senhora da Graça sanctuary and moved into the general race lead, displacing Portuguese rider Afonso Eulálio (ABTF Betão-Feirense).
González conquered the 10km climb of the 170.8km stage with ease, distancing Nych within the last part, with David Delgado (Burgos-BH) in third, 22 seconds again. He used the trip to maneuver 14 positions within the common classification, now 49 seconds behind the brand new race chief Nych.
Sunday brings the finale of the 10-day stage race, a hilly 26.6km particular person time trial in Viseu.
