The Israel-Premier Tech cycling team that has been dogged by protests during Spain’s Vuelta race has removed its full name from riders’ jerseys for the rest of the event. Wednesday’s stage of the Vuelta a Espana ended without a winner after organisers decided to take the time at three kilometres before the line as police struggled to contain hundreds of Palestine flag-waving protesters in Bilbao. The Israel-Premier Tech team were also stopped on the road by a group of protesters holding Palestine flags during last week’s team time trial in Figueres.
