Time is running out for Cadel Evans at this year's Vuelta a España. Wednesday's stage to Talavera de la Reina is mainly flat and expected to end in another bunch sprint and the same can be said for Sunday's final stage to Madrid. That presents the Australian with three days in which to try to make up his 1:51 deficit to overall leader Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d'Epargne).
