Stage 4 of the Vuelta a España may have been a largely quiet one for the majority of the peloton as they raced across the plains of Aragón, but for race leader, Jumbo-Visma's Primož Roglič, there were hidden difficulties.

A windy stage to Ejea de los Cabelleros saw Movistar and Ineos Grenadiers take to the front at one point in a bid to make some general classification waves by splitting the peloton, but the gusts were never strong enough to provoke any echelons.
