Davide Cimolai seeking victory for Movistar Team in the AlUla Tour: "The stage is better suited to me, I like the final climb a lot"

Davide Cimolai has started 2024 as Movistar Team's main sprinter, although it is expected that he could be Fernando Gaviria's train leader in future races.
The Italian finished tenth in the first stage of the AlUla Tour in a short and flat stage that did not suit his characteristics. Now, before the second stage he has made it clear that he believes he is doing much better and will try to fight for the win.

"I'm sure I like the stage better than yesterday's, long, with 200 kilometers, it suits me better, especially the finish, with a small steep climb I like it a lot."
Carlos Canal, who couldn't make it to the final finish in the first stage, makes clear the team's objective in these first flat days: to be with leader Davide Formolo.
"I feel very, very good, yesterday I had a bit of bad luck, I had a puncture 3.3 km from the finish line and lost some time, but I'll take advantage of the opportunities that remain, be with our leader Formolo, try to be with him and save the windy days and sprints," said Canal before the second stage.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024

On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point.
