Asi quedo la general luego de la crono... 🔥 Opiniones: Kuss sigue siendo una incógnita. Remco parece estar firme para lo que queda. Roglic está más fuerte que Vingegaard, podría ser el futuro líder definitivo del Jumbo.
"Sepp is still the one who has to go for it, he's wearing red" - Primoz Roglic satisfied with time-trial and GC rise
CyclingWednesday, 06 September 2023 at 10:31
Primoz Roglic finished third in the Valladolid time trial of the Vuelta a Espana, behind only Filippo Ganna and Remco Evenepoel. He has now strategically positioned himself in the classification behind the Belgian, sandwiching Remco with teammate Sepp Kuss.
After the stage, he was very satisfied with his performance: "Yes, I am very happy, happy with the result. It was very hard work and I have no complaints." He was the closest competitor to Evenepoel in the time-trial, but tactically speaking he has gained the upper hand when it comes to Jumbo-Visma's priorities for the GC, as Jonas Vingegaard experienced a tough day and lost 42 seconds to his teammate.

About Remco's result, he said he was not surprised: "He is the world time trial champion, he is always super fast, I think I put in a good performance, good numbers, I went at full throttle and I'm very happy with the result".
On the general classification and still having Kuss in the overall lead Primoz smiled and made the Jumbo-Visma strategy as unclear as possible: "Sepp is still the one who has to go for it, he's wearing the red," he laughed, whilst the team continues to navigate through an unexpected situation.

- Why do the women CXs keep getting short changed with the length of theor races? They could have easily done another lap to put them at 50 minutes which is their time limit. Yet another CX race where they fail to reach this when they had a chance to. Come on ... the math isn't that hard to figure out lap times and divide into 50 min!frieders318-11-2024
- All pro cyclists are massively underpaid! The amount of riding and physical exertion they put their bodies through is crazy compared to other sports. I can't think of any other sport where you are physically active at a very high level of power output for hours on end each day.Pogboom17-11-2024
- When I was working for Starkist/Heinz my manager quit. So the next week my group was put under another manager. During our first meeting he asked if there was anything we needed to tell him. I said that I would be out the following week on vacation. He said "I don't know if I can let you go on vacation". I replied, "You can't tell if I can go. You can only tell me if I can come back".Sweep17-11-2024

- Pointless reporting. They are rivals, each tries their way to get their best result, with or without collaboration. As long as it’s all fair, why even report riders feelings about such stuff (yes I know, lack of other news). Anyone riding races will go through dozens of moments per race where they get emotional about the way someone else rides or takes advantage or doesn’t collaborate or more, it is natural, it is justified, it is NOT newsworthy!Mistermaumau17-11-2024
