2023 Vuelta a Espana final overall classification | Sepp Kuss turns breakaway into maiden Grand Tour win
CyclingSunday, 17 September 2023 at 22:01
The overall classification of the Vuelta a Espana was an historic one. Jumbo-Visma have won their third Grand Tour of the season with their third rider, and completed the whole podium with Sepp Kuss, Jonas Vingegaard and Primoz Roglic.
This was a victory built on stage 6 to the Alto de Javalambre, where Kuss joined the breakaway and took the win. The minutes he's won there were enough to hold off the rest of the field throughout the rest of the race, with his two teammates each taking several stage wins, but paying back all the hard work with a conservative set of performances in the final two mountain stages, which have ultimately earned the team fill the entire podium. The red jersey has also been held by Lorenzo Milesi, Andrea Piccolo, Remco Evenepoel and Lenny Martínez before the American took charge.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
