Primoz Roglic and Sepp Kuss headline provisional lineup for Vuelta a Espana
CyclingThursday, 20 July 2023 at 10:11
The Tour de France is still in play but a lot happens within the team and plans are being finalized for the Vuelta a Espana. Primoz Roglic will be returning to fight for victory, and his support crew may involve Sepp Kuss who can ride a third Grand Tour this season.
Roglic, after winning the Giro d'Italia, was expected to ride the Vuelta as the team had built a solid block towards the Tour de France. He did not race the Tour de Suisse where some expected him as it is the final big stage-race missing in his palmarès and he ended the Giro in great form, instead taking the time to enjoy and recover from a successful race and properly prepare for the Vuelta, where he crashed out last year after taking three GC titles.

Behind him is a shortlist of eight riders, missing Edoardo Affini or other rouleurs who could support on the flat stages as was the case in the Giro. Instead a climber packed lineup including Sepp Kuss who is currently finishing his second Grand Tour and again in great form, and Attila Valter who is making his GT debut at the Vuelta after having been signed earlier this year.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
