"Yet, there is a certain tension because it’s a tough finish and it's the seventh day. I tried to follow Kristen and Elisa and felt it would hurt. At 200 meters I put an extra acceleration and saw that no one could follow."
Sunday will be the long-awaited queen stage - the final chance to shake up the standings. For Vos, this stage will be mainly about arriving safely to Puerto de Cotos while supporting Visma's main GC card in Riejanne Markus, third overall.
