With five abandons during Stage 15 of the 2014 Vuelta a España, the race is once again in les Cuspides and without a fulcrum.

The two riders on the cusp of the fulcrum after a difficult mountaintop finish are George Bennett of Cannondale and Stef Clement of Belkin Pro Cycling Team.

Alberto Contador continues to lead the overall race for general classification, but a new Lanterne Rouge has taken the stern after Matteo Pelucchi abandoned the race: Carlos Alberto Betancur Of AG2R La Mondiale, who is 3 hours, 36 minutes and 40 seconds adrift of Contador.
