The Saxo Bank star clocked 36 minutes 41 seconds in lashing rain and strong winds in the Spanish port city - finishing 32 seconds ahead of Britain’s David Millar, who had set the early pace.

Former world time trial champion Bert Grabsch finished in third place, four seconds further back.” Read more from CNN International
