"It's been an incredible first year” - Attila Valter will conclude opening Jumbo-Visma campaign at the Italian classic trifecta
CyclingFriday, 29 September 2023 at 18:00
Attila Valter has had a successful first season at Jumbo-Visma since joining the Dutch-based team from Groupama - FDJ. As the Hungarian national champion's campaign draws to an end, he reflects on the year as a whole.
"I had a few days off after La Vuelta a España. Since then, I have had about six good training sessions and noticed that my form is quite good. The upcoming races suit me well, and I love riding in Italy," Valter previews to the official website of Jumbo-Visma ahead of the Giro dell'Emilia, the Tre Valli Varesine and finally Il Lombardia. "The short, steep climbs that we will be facing will allow me to get the best out of me, and I expect to be able to support our leaders for a long time."
Playing a key part in Sepp Kuss' Vuelta a Espana Grand Tour, Valter also secured himself a double victory at the Hungarian national championships both on the road and in the individual time-trial. "It's been an incredible first year,” he reflects. "I'm learning a lot from the riders and staff, which has allowed me to develop well. I owe my current form to the team. I hope to continue this form and finish this successful year well. I had some ideas about what my first year with the team would be like, but this was beyond my expectations.”

- 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
- This website needs clicks so just vacuums up what is available and loves anything that creates discussion.Mistermaumau27-12-2024
- Their battles are only interesting or special when both are in good shape and unfortunately it’s been a few years since that was last the case, road cycling tends to put an end to most side careers, MVDP still being a rare exception.Mistermaumau27-12-2024
- Hope it’s not his coz’ that’s no longer so stylish except in dubaious (sic) circles, not sure traditionally brought up people realise that yet but one day it will filter down.Mistermaumau27-12-2024
- Yes, generally Jonas is a better climber than Tadej, but he's a little lighter. This year he was much lighter than he's been since I've watching him, which I think worked against him some. I have a feeling he will bring it next year but we may see something like we saw this year. We'll have to see, can't wait for the racing to start again.awp27-12-2024
