The Vuelta a Espana is heating up going into the final week with a real tussle developing at the front of the pack.

Australia's Ben O'Connor has led the way since his Stage 6 victory, but his lead is hovering around the one minute mark with the inevitable shadow of Primož Roglič looming large behind him.

Three-time champion Roglic was the pre-race favourite and took another bite out of O'Connor's lead during the penultimate weekend.

Reigning champion Sepp Kuss is placed outside the top 10 so far with a week left to claw back some of the seven-minute deficit to the lead.

Ahead of Kuss sits the top British rider in the general classification, Adam Yates, though his chances of overall victory also look remote at best.
