Stage 1: Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) captured the stage 1 win of the Volta a Catalunya in an uphill sprint against rival Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep). Behind, Ide Schelling (Bora-Hansgrohe) secured third while Maxime Van Gils (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert) and Giulio Ciccone (Trek-Segafredo) completed the top five.

Stage 2: Giulio Ciccone (Trek-Segafredo) claimed victory at the top of the 15km Vallter climb on stage 2 of the Volta a Catalunya. He outsprinted race leader Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) across the line, with Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) trailing in third. Roglič remained the overall leader after his second-place finish.

Stage 3: Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) charged ahead of Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) to win stage 3 of the Volta a Catalunya at the summit finish of La Molina. The time gained by Evenepoel moved him into a tie with the current race lead in overall time, however, Roglič got the nod for the GC lead.

Stage 4: On what is likely the only sprint stage of the race, Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) turned out a perfectly-timed burst of speed to snatch the stage victory from Bryan Coquard (Cofidis), while Israel-Premier Tech's Corbin Strong led out the sprint but faded to third. Roglič was all smiles after getting through the stage with his narrow lead intact.

Stage 5: Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) blasted past rival Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) on the final 50 metres of the mountaintop finish at Lo Port and won for a second time at Volta a Catalunya, this time on stage 5. The gap of six seconds at the line, along with a four-second bonus, pushed Roglič into a 10-second margin ahead of Evenepoel, with two stages remaining.

Stage 6: In a remarkable sprint finale, Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) came back from a late-race mechanical to win the bunch sprint in Molins de Rei. Inside 4km from the finish line, Groves swapped bikes with teammate Xandro Meurisse, and worked his way back up into the field to claim the stage glory. Primož Roglič maintained a 10-second overall classification lead after battling for bonus seconds against Remco Evenepoel.

Stage 7: Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma) held off several attacks from GC rival Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) to survive the hilly final stage of the Volta a Catalunya in Barcelona and claim the overall win. Evenepoel won the finale stage 7 from a two-up sprint against Roglič, but it wasn't enough to surpass his rival for the overall victory.
