www.cyclingnews.com presents the 58th Vuelta a España, 2003.

After three weeks of racing and a varied parcours, the Vuelta gives a nod to tradition by offering a more ceremonial road stage to wrap things up. Madrid will once more host the final day of racing, which will conclude with eight laps of a finishing circuit in the center city. Almost certainly a stage for the sprinters, the Madrid stage will offer fans repeated glimpses of the race, whose overall classification will have been set after the previous day's mountain time trial.
