Rigoberto Uran: "The Vuelta is the only grand tour where I haven’t won a stage or been on the podium, so I need some luck"

Rigoberto Uran is ready to lead EF Education-EasyPost into the Vuelta a Espana. After a subpar first half of the season, he is looking to add a stage win to his name.
Uran has yet to secure his first victory of the season. He recently finished Tour de France in 26th position.“I wasn’t in my best shape at the Tour and at the beginning of the season with some bad days and crashes, so I need some luck,” Uran said. He continues, “Now, I feel good, motivated. Not only that, I’m excited to start La Vuelta because I know there won’t be a lot more opportunities for me at my age.”
He says he plans to win at least one stage in Vuelta. It is the only grand tour in which he has not won any stage. “The Vuelta is the only grand tour where I haven’t won a stage or been on the podium. After the Tour, I felt strong and have been training a lot at home, so I’m in good shape. Hugh’s good, Chaves too. When I go to a Grand Tour, it’s because I feel good and because I want to give my best for the team,” concluded Uran.
