2013 Vuelta a España Standings after stage 8

Here is a look at the overall standings, and how they have changed over the last three stages. I first included the GC standings after stage 7, then stage 8, and finally stage 9. The final column on the stages-8 and 9 tables shows the number of places in the standings that each rider has gained or lost from the previous stage.

You can see who the big winners and losers were. For instance, on the stage-8 summit finish, most noticeable among the losers are Roman Kreuziger (who coughed up more than five minutes on Saturday’s climb to the finish, and dropped 26 places in the standings), and then Robert Kiserlovski and Bauke Mollema who dropped 15 and 12 places respectively.

Many riders were among the winners Saturday, including Nicolas Roche (who took over the race lead), Leopold Konig (up to 5^th place), Team Katusha (who moved Purito into the top 10, and Moreno into a podium position), and then Basso, Pinot and Pozzovivo (who all moved into the top 20).
