Magnus Cort delighted to take victory on "one of the toughest stages" he's ever raced

Just days after Mads Pedersen, Magnus Cort has also completed his Grand Slam and won stages in the Giro d'Italia, Tour de France and Vuelta a España.
It didn't matter to Cort that EF Education-EasyPost rider achieved it after his compatriot, he was delighted with the victory after a very tough stage. "I am very happy with the victory, for me it is more important to do it than to be the first. It has been incredible to achieve it in one of the toughest stages that I have ridden on a bicycle. The wind and the water, it was incredible, there was a lot of confusion We didn't know what was going on."

He confessed that he did not have much information during the race due to a problem with his radio and in part due to that and in part due to the horrendous weather conditions that have continued to have an effect on this year's edition of the Giro d'Italia, it has been one of the hardest stages of his career as a professional. Radio or no radio, Cort was able to outsprint Derek Gee and Alessandro De Marchi to achieve victory.
"My radio didn't work, I didn't have much information, I fought all day, first to get into the escape and then to try to get to the top of the climb, we bought time, but not enough, so they chased us to the end and we kept fighting. I don't remember a stage like this. Fighting throughout the 5 hours, it was very hard, a very tough stage."

- Oh, so now you know Pog better than he knows himself? Saying that when at the same time you can see an article quoting Pog saying “sometimes I don’t know why I attack” and not ever analysing emotions as men tend to is really rather naive and reductive. Hardly worth wasting our planet’s energy and ressources for. How about elevating the discussion to think over things a bit deeper?Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- They couldn’t convict him criminally because he paid up to escape it (that weird American possibility that ensures not all are equal before the law). He was convicted civilly but technically for committing crime. I on the other hand live in a country where unexplained damage to a baby in your care in theory leads to minimum 5 years of prison, if you admit an accident it’s more lenient but telling the truth that you don’t know how a bump on the skull happened exposes you to the as much risk as some who murder and rape. The developed world doesn’t deserve that designationMistermaumau20-11-2024
- Doesn’t deserve criticism considering all he won with all the crashes plus how close he got to a TdF (Pog had luck). If Pog and Jonas battle and wipe each other out we have Remco and Primoz to put on a show.Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- Agreed. Until he can stay upright on his bike, he’s at best an incomplete for a grade. That doesn’t mean that on his best form he can’t win it all. We just haven’t seen it.mij20-11-2024
