The Vuelta a Espana, the third and final three-week Grand Tour of the year, is currently taking place in Spain - but will it make it to Sunday's finish line in Madrid?Pro-Palestinian protesters have disrupted the race on several occasions and with riders saying they are worried for their safety, there have been suggestions the competitors might quit the Vuelta before the final stage.Asked whether the race should be ended early, the Vuelta organisers - who have had to shorten a number of stages - insisted there is "no Plan B" and that the race will continue until it reaches its conclusion in the Spanish capital."We are going to continue with La Vuelta," said race director Javier Guillen, who added that the disruptions were "illegal".However, Thursday's time trial was reduced from 27.2km to 12.2km to ensure "greater protection" for the riders.The focus of the protests has been Israel-Premier Tech, the sponsors of a team which includes several British riders. The team changed to a kit that does not feature the team name midway through the race.The team have requested to compete as 'IPT' in WorldTour races in Canada this week in an attempt to avoid disruption caused by protesters.The protests come in the wake of the Israeli military launching a campaign in Gaza in response to the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.At least 64,605 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry.Ending a Grand Tour early would be unprecedented. With just four stages remaining - including a huge, mountainous challenge on the penultimate day - the outcome of the race is still undecided.Israel-Premier Tech are a team co-owned by Canadian-Israeli property billionaire Sylvan Adams.Adams has close ties to the Israeli government and has previously told BBC Sport he is a "self-appointed ambassador for Israel". The 66-year-old was at the White House with US President Donald Trump during the signing of the Abraham Accords between Israel and other Emirati states, such as the UAE, in 2020.The team was founded in 2014 as the Israel Cycling Academy before becoming a World Tour squad - the sport's top flight - in 2020.For the 2021 season they signed British four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome on a big-money contract.His signing failed to deliver big results, but Canadian Michael Woods won stage nine of the Tour de France in 2023, and the team's squad boasts four of Britain's best current riders - including Stephen Williams, the victor in last year's Tour of Britain.This Vuelta has not gone well for the team, who lost their leading rider Derek Gee days before the race after he asked for his contract to be terminated because "certain issues simply made my continuation at the team untenable".Neither Gee nor the team have given a reason, but the Canadian had previously been in negotiations to sign a new contract.The team have instructed lawyers to dispute the cancelling of Gee's contract.
