In an interview with his team ahead of the race, Bilbao said “ I’m feeling really good and motivated and will arrive in perfect shape with the goal of fighting for the podium and maybe even a stage”.
The Spaniard narrowly missed out on the podium at last year’s edition of the race, as he finished fourth overall, three seconds behind Adam Yates in third. On last year’s race, he went on to say that “I was a bit disappointed in the end, as I expected to be on the podium and on the last day, it was a hard day for me, losing out on the podium by a few seconds after a really good race with all the team”.
