Delgado came with a Reynolds team that contained Miguel Indurain, who had just won Paris–Nice and was also seen as a potential favourite. The first few days of the race saw the leaders jersey change shoulders from Marnix Lameire, Benny van Brabant and Roland LeClercq. The Colombian Omar Hernández took the lead on the sixth stage. On the 12th stage to Cerler, Delgado battled with four Colombians and won the stage. He won the stage 15 time trial, where Colombian Martin Farfan took the leader's jersey. On the following stage to Santander, Delgado took the jersey. However Delgado's team had a bad day several stages later, when Indurain fell and broke his wrist; Delgado had difficulty keeping the jersey from Fabio Parra. Parra was only two seconds behind Delgado on the general classification at one stage. The final time trial was the last chance for Parra to try to take the jersey from Delgado, but Delgado won and increased his lead to win his third grand tour.http://hemeroteca-paginas.mundodeportivo.com/EMD01/HEM/1989/05/16/MD19890516-037.pdf Clasificaciones es 16 May 1989 37 El Mundo Deportivo El Mundo Deportivo S.A. 27 May 2012 PDF Classifications https://web.archive.org/web/20191026150158/http://hemeroteca-paginas.mundodeportivo.com/EMD01/HEM/1989/05/16/MD19890516-037.pdf 26 October 2019 live Route +List of stageshttp://cyclingarchives.com/voorloopfiche.php?wedstrijdvoorloopid=8105 https://web.archive.org/web/20160409003342/http://cyclingarchives.com/voorloopfiche.php?wedstrijdvoorloopid=8105 usurped April 9, 2016 Vuelta a España 1989 Cycling Archives 22 July 2018http://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/eta_tde/tde1989.php 44ème Vuelta a España 1989 fr Memoire du cyclisme https://web.archive.org/web/20050112032725/http://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/eta_tde/tde1989.php 12 January 2005 Stage Date Course Distance Type Winner 1 24 April A Coruña to A Coruña 21 km 0 on Marnix Lameire BEL 2 25 April A Coruña to Santiago de Compostela 222 km 0 on Joaquín Hernández ESP 3a 26 April Vigo to Vigo 35 km 0 on 22px Team time trial Artiach 1989a 3b Vigo to Ourense 105 km 0 on Malcolm Elliott GBR 4 27 April Orense to Pontevedra 163 km 0 on Roberto Pagnin ITA 5 28 April La Bañeza to Béjar 260 km 0 on Eddy Planckaert BEL 6 29 April Béjar to Ávila 195 km 0 on Luc Suykerbuyk NED 7 30 April Avila to Toledo 165 km 0 on Massimo Ghirotto ITA 8 1 May Toledo to Albacete 226 km 0 on Stefano Allocchio ITA 9 2 May Albacete to Gandia 194 km 0 on Reimund Dietzen FRG 10 3 May Gandia to Benicàssim 219 km 0 on Herminio Díaz Zabala ESP 11 4 May Vinaròs to Lleida 182 km 0 on Malcolm Elliott GBR 12 5 May Lleida to Cerler 190 km 0 on Pedro Delgado ESP 13 6 May Benasque to Jaca 164 km 0 on Mathieu Hermans NED 14 7 May Jaca to Zaragoza 166 km 0 on Mathieu Hermans NED 15 8 May Ezcaray to Valdezcaray 23 km 0 on 22px Individual time trial Pedro Delgado ESP 16 9 May Haro to Santoña 193 km 0 on Peter Hilse FRG 17 10 May Santoña to Lakes of Enol 225 km 0 on Álvaro Pino ESP 18 11 May Cangas de Onís to Valgrande-Pajares Brañillín es Valgrande-Pajares 152 km 0 on Ivan Ivanov URS 19 12 May León to Valladolid 157 km 0 on Mathieu Hermans NED 20 13 May Valladolid to Medina del Campo 42 km 0 on 22px Individual time trial Pedro Delgado ESP 21 14 May Collado Villalba to Palazuelos de Eresma (Destillerias DYC) 187 km 0 on Alberto Camargo COL 22 15 May Palazuelos de Eresma (Destilerias DYC) to Madrid 179 km 0 on Jean-Pierre Heynderickx BEL Total 3,656 km 0 on Results Final General Classification RankRiderTeamTime 1 ESP Pedro Delgado Reynolds 93h 01' 47s 2 COL Fabio Parra Kelme + 35s 3 COL Óscar Vargas Postobón + 3' 09s 4 ESP Federico Echave BH-Sport + 3' 24s 5 ESP Álvaro Pino BH-Sport + 4' 28s 6 URS Ivan Ivanov Alfa Lum + 5' 00s 7 ESP Iñaki Gastón Kelme + 7' 24s 8 COL Pedro Saúl Morales Kelme + 7' 59s 9 FRA Jean Claude Bagot R.M.O. + 8' 23s 10 NED Luc Suykerbuyk Lotus-Zahor + 9' 44s 11 ESP Angel Ocana Perez Lotus-Zahor + 12' 08s 12 COL Martín Ramírez Café de Colombia + 12' 18s 13 COL Carlos Jaramillo Postobón + 12' 41s 14 NOR Jaanus Kuum AD Renting 15 COL José Martín Farfán Café de Colombia 16 ESP Jesús Blanco Villar Seur 17 COL Héctor Patarroyo Postobón 18 ESP Pello Ruiz Cabestany ONCE 19 COL Gerardo Moncada Postobón 20 ESP Marino Lejarreta Caja Rural-Orbea 21 ESP Enrique Aja Cagigas Teka 22 ESP Javier Murguialday BH Sport 23 ESP Jon Unzaga Bombin Seur 24 ESP Eduardo Chozas Olmo ONCE 25 FRA Didier Virvaleix Histor-Sigma References External links Vuelta a España 1989 La Vuelta (Official site in Spanish, English, and French) 1989 Vuelta a España 1 11 12 22 Category:1989 in Spanish road cycling 1989 Category:April 1989 sports events in Europe Category:May 1989 sports events in Europe
