Centered around the vibrant city of San Sebastian, the 236 kilometre race is packed with relentless climbs as it navigates the notoriously twisting roads of the Basque Country. Amongst the punishing ascents are classics such as Azkarate, Urraki and Jaizkibel, with a brand new climb introduced to finish the race. Coming right before a rapid descent to the finish line, the two kilometre long 'Pilotegi' ramps up to 18% in its final 750 meters which will more than likely prove decisive in deciding this year's outcome.
Winner of the past three editions, Remco Evenepoel is giving the race a miss this year after taking double gold at the Olympics. Favourites to replace the Belgian on the list of winners will be Slovenia's Primoz Roglic, the Polka dot jersey winner form this year's Tour de France Richard Carapaz and Remco's loyal lieutenant Mikel Landa and of course Jonas Vingegaard.
You won't want to miss any of the drama throughout the race, so here’s how to watch Clasica de San Sebastian live streams online, from anywhere.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Spanish service, you'd select Spain from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to RTVE or another streaming service and watch the action.
