Nairo Quintana, on his future: "We just pray and cross our fingers that it will be soon"

Nairo Quintana spoke during the presentation of his Gran Fondo that will take place in Santander (Colombia). During the event he wanted to send a message of hope to his fans: he still thinks he can find a team in 2023.

Thus, the Giro and Vuelta winner commented that he is still preparing for when the time comes: "We are preparing and waiting for the moment when the opportunity arises, we still can't say for sure when we will be there, we just pray and cross our fingers that it will be soon".

"In life there are times of ups and downs, times when you have to prune, fertilize and water and take care of it so that again there are fruits. It is difficult for the tree is always in bloom, we have to continue working with processes, often there is no follow-up because they believe that with money there is a solution, but it is a commitment of all, of the parents," said Quintana in statements collected by the colleagues of Antena 2. 

So, despite everything, Nairo continues to believe that he can sign for a WordTour team this year despite the fact that we are in the middle of the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France is just around the corner;
