Much like stage one a medium-mountain stage on day three resulted in over 50 riders finishing with the same time at the front of the pack in the Tour of the Basque Country. Stephen Cummings of Great Britain was the overall winner in 5:01:57, but finishing 24th with the same time actually allowed Lawson Craddock to jump one spot to 14th where he is still just 22 seconds off the overall lead held by Mikel Landa of Spain.

No other American was in the top 100 for the day however Larry Warbasse is still hanging in the top 100 overall, 23:40 back in 98th.

Stage four on Tuesday will be 103 miles and another medium-mountain stage.
