Weather at the finish city of Burgos at 2:30 PM, local time: 27C (80F), sunny, with the wnd from the northeast at 16 km/hr (10 mph). No rain is forecast.

The race: At 1:38 PM the official start was given to the peloton after a 3.1 km ceremonial rollout from the Gamonal neighborhood of Burgos.

Here's the race organizer's stage two summary:

Jasper Philipsen narrowly edged Fabio Jakobsen (Deceuninck-Quick Step) in Burgos, on Sunday, to add another Grand Tour success to Alpecin-Fenix’s tally in 2021. The Belgian team had already won the first sprint of the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France with Tim Merlier. This time, it was Philipsen’s turn to shine, claiming his 2nd Grand Tour stage win, a year after he already took the first one on Spanish roads. Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) went safely through a windy stage to retain La Roja on the eve of the first summit finish while Alex Aranburu (Astana-Premier Tech) was chasing bonus seconds.

The Sun and the wind are up as the peloton leave Caleruega early in the afternoon and head for Gamonal, a neighbourhood of Burgos where sprinters are used to shining unless echelons turn the race upside down. Three riders quickly show their willingness to bring battle: Diego Rubio (Burgos-BH), Sergio Martin (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) and Xabier Mikel Azparren (Euskaltel-Euskadi) attack from km 0 to make the break of the day.

A wary peloton through the wind
They quickly open a gap of 4’ before Arnaud Démare’s Groupama-FDJ react. Fabio Jakobsen’s Deceuninck-Quick Step join the French team at the helm of the bunch and the gap is already down to 3’25’’ at km 18, and under 2 minutes after 50km of racing.

With the peloton riding cautiously through the wind, the gap goes up and down all day long: 1’15’’ with 76km to go, 30’’ 16km further, 1’20’’ as they enter the last 50km… The peloton only trail by 35’’ when Rubio drops his companions with 31km to go. The Spanish baroudeur increases his lead to 1’05’’ before he is reeled in with 20.5km to go.

Philipsen just ahead of Jakobsen
Astana accelerate ahead of the newly introduced bonus sprint, with 3, 2 and 1 seconds up for grabs in Tardajos (km 150). Jakobsen goes first through the line and Alex Aranburu (Astana-Premier Tech). He then trails by 4’’ on GC while Jumbo-Visma take care of Primoz Roglic in the bunch.
The final sprint is extremely tight and, although Jakobsen seemed to have the advantage, Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Fenix) takes the win right on the line. Michael Matthews (Team BikeExchange) takes 3rd and also moves to 3r position on GC, while Roglic awaits the first summit finish on Monday, at Picon Blanco.
