Einer Rubio is fifth in the general classification of the Giro d'Italia after two hard first stages in which the first differences have been created. The Colombian climber of Movistar Team was eleventh and won a stage in the Corsa Rosa 2023 and it is clear that he is coming for more this year.
In statements to his team, the native of Chíquiza confessed to have felt good, to have had good feelings throughout the preseason, he is happy with the work done, he hopes that Fernando Gaviria can win one of the 3 sprint stages that are coming now and then from the weekend it will be his turn to try to shine:
"We have been able to do a good job since the beginning of the season and now we can see the results. We have to try to continue like this, in this line, the Giro has just started," he said following yesterday's summit finish in Oropa, where he finished eighth on the day, 30 seconds down on Tadej Pogacar. He now sits fifth in the overall classification, 54 seconds down.
"The fact of being there is a privilege, we have to try to do our best, be there, be smart and try to have a good race. Now we have three important days to try to help Fernando [Gaviria], hopefully we can get the victory. Later on I will try to do it myself".

- Ha ha, I like the kid's style, he gets in the obligatory "I'm recovering from illness so might've been able to have hung on for longer" Proper Pro! Chapeau young man.Suipedali28-12-2024
- He would still be faster on the course riding his cyclocross bike than in his Lambo!Pogboom28-12-2024
- i love the spirit of any of these younger guys who will say out loud I WANT TO TRY TO FOLLOW MATHIEU. they know plenty well what that means. vanthourenhout, eli, lars and company have kinda been beaten into submission by years trying and failing to keep up with mvdp. i feel for them, seriously. but it’s great to see younger riders show up and take their turn, full of hope.OCexile28-12-2024
- The nice thing about World Tour cycling is it never goes the way you think it ill, haha. Tadej breaking away so far out in the Worlds? Remco doubling up in Paris?
ScottG27-12-2024 - Pretty classy comments by Jonas. Makes me like him even more.ScottG27-12-2024
- MVDP is simply a cross "machine" - amazing to watch.ScottG27-12-2024
- yes, Jonas said that he had lost a little muscle mass. In the other hand, also Tadej changed his physique: thin, more lighter than ever, legs and glutes well defined (finally, no more junior legs). Both were more lighter than ever but Pogi could put more muscle in legs and glutes.
maria2024202427-12-2024 - He can keep contending for Vuelta podium spots. A lot would need to go wrong for others and everything right for him to get on the Giro podium. He'll only be on the TdF podium if he's becomes a podium presenter.Veganpotter27-12-2024
- I like that, mind if I use it from now on? Better than using his name which always gets me worried about Google hits and giving him the excuse he was bound to behave the way he did from the derived verb.Mistermaumau27-12-2024
