Team UAE won the 24.1-kilometer stage around Figueres in 25 minutes and 26 seconds, with Vingegard's Visma just eight seconds off the pace, and Giulio Ciccone's Lidl-Trek a further second slower in third on the day.
The result leaves two-time Tour de France winner Vingegaard top of the overall standings, while UAE have Ayuso, Almeida and Marc Soler all are eight seconds behind, with Italian climber Ciccone rounding out the top 5.
Almeida said the result was a confidence boost for his team.
"The gaps are small, and we need to be realistic, but it was full gas for everybody today," Almeida said. "It would have been nicer to have the red jersey, but we are getting closer and closer to it."
Some 15 national time trial champions were sporting their country's colors on the course, where the eight-rider teams needed to finish the race with four riders together.
Team Lotto was the first down the starters' ramp from outside a giant pink castle, decorated with croissants and boiled eggs, designed by the surrealist artist Salvador Dali, who used to live in it.
Tom Pidcock's outfit Q36.5 did better than expected at 22 seconds on the British rider's first outing in the team event.
"It's not bad, I mean, I think we did a really great time trial," said Pidcock, the Olympic mountain bike champion, who is 13th overall in La Vuelta 2025. "It's my first as a pro, the first for this team. The last 5 kilometers was horrible. I kept missing the back. When someone pulls out and you mistime it, then I was dying."
Overnight leader David Gaudu slipped to sixth at 16 seconds, while Egan Bernal of Ineos dropped from fifth to 10th at 22 seconds.
The race next enters the Pyrenees with two tough mountain stages.
Pro-Palestinian Protestors Target Israel-Premier Tech Team At La Vuelta 2025
Pro-Palestinian protesters attempted to block riders from the Israel-Premier Tech team at the Vuelta a España 2025 on Wednesday.
A number of people with banners and Palestinian flags tried to disrupt the team owned by Israeli-Canadian billionaire Sylvan Adams at the start of the fifth stage time trial in Figueras, Catalonia.
On a video circulating on social media, three people can be seen holding a banner with the inscription "Neutrality is complicity. Boycott Israel" in Catalan, before being removed by race officials.
Some riders were forced to slow down, but no accidents were reported.
The Israel-Premier Tech team also was targeted during the Tour de France.
Hamas's attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023 resulted in the deaths of 1,219 people, mostly civilians, according to a tally based on official figures.
The retaliatory Israeli offensive has killed at least 60,819 Palestinians, most of them civilians, according to the Gaza health ministry, which is under Hamas's administration.
