Description
This pass, which climbs over 1,500 meters after ascending that of Pedro Bernardo, is part of the history of the Vuelta. Serranillos is the place where Bernard Hinault completely disarmed Julian Gorospe on May 6, 1983. The place where "El Caimán" won the Vuelta. Hinault's efforts to win the Vuelta prevented him from running that year's Tour and also from winning the following year's Tour. His absence led to the dazzling appearance of a young 22-year-old heir, Laurent Fignon, his Renault team-mate. The same man who had helped him blow up the race in Serranillos.
