Sepp Kuss' new record after winning the Vuelta a Espana equals Nencini and beats Valverde and Chozas
Cycling
Sepp Kuss is the fourth rider in cycling history to finish in the top-15 of all three grand tours in the same season and the second after Gastone Nencini in 1957 to win one of them.
Only 5 cyclists have achieved it, among them two Spaniards, Eduardo Chozas and an Alejandro Valverde who in 2016 completed an extraordinary campaign. The other was Raphael Geminiani. However, of all of them, as we say only Kuss and the aforementioned Germiani achieved the feat by winning one of the races.
