"Roglic just came to the bus smiling" - Despite miserable weather conditions Jumbo-Visma enjoys Giro d'Italia stage 10

After another disgustingly wet and cold day at the Giro d'Italia, it would have been understandable for any of the peloton's spirits to be down. Not Primoz Roglic though, the Jumbo-Visma leader remained upbeat.

“It was very cold and rainy. The long descent certainly didn't help either. It is not for nothing that thirty men enter the first group," recaps Jumbo-Visma sports director Marc Reef in conversation with Eurosport following the conclusion of stage 10.

"He came in without any problems. He just came here smiling at the bus," he reveals. “The team kept him out of trouble and kept him relatively warm throughout the stage. He just finished well."
