Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe has confirmed that Primoš Roglic will race in the Vuelta a España, but is hesitant about the Slovenian's chances of a fourth victory after the Slovenian crashed in the Tour de France and was out of the race for five weeks.

Also on the Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe team for the Vuelta a España are Roger Adrià, Giovanni Areotti, Nico Denz, Patrik Gamper, Florian Lipowitz, Dani Martinez, and Alexandre Vlasov, the last two were also given protected leadership roles.

Roglic broke a vertebra in his lower back on stage 12 of the Tour de France.
