Stage 6 of the 2023 Vuelta a Espana has a challenging finale atop the Pico del Buitre. Jumbo-Vimsa though enter it full of confidence, despite the fact it's Soudal - Quick-Step's Remco Evenepoel who holds the Red Jersey.
“The goal for the fifth stage was to get to the finish unscathed. We succeeded," recaps Jumbo-Vimsa's sports director Grischa Niermann in a post-stage interview with his team's official website. "We got through the day just fine. Wilco felt fine after yesterday's crash. That is a nice boost.”

Ahead of stage 6 however, Niermann realises the day will be more of a challenge for the general classification teams and whilst it's unlikely to be a truly decisive day in terms of the overall race, time gaps could very well emerge among the leaders.

My crashes over time have yielded a broken neck, broken back, broken left leg, crush pelvis, three broken collarbones, broken right arm and I've even lost a rib.
