Eusebio Unzué, the head of
Movistar Team, gave an interview to the colleagues of the newspaper Marca, who initially asked him about the acquisition by Saudi Arabia of a percentage of Telefónica and whether that could end up meaning that the Saudis would enter as sponsors in the cycling team, although the Navarrese did not release anything.
In addition, Eusebio discussed with Nacho Labarga other current issues of the Vuelta a España and
Enric Mas' chances of finishing on top:
TEST ON WEDNESDAY AND THE TOURMALET.
"This Wednesday we have a new test to see the best riders in the final. But above all on Friday, Saturday and Sunday there are good stages like Lekunberri".
OBJECTIVE.
"Apart from the fact that it's at home, which it's not, they are two great stages where they will be a real test. We'll see what the differences are between the best riders. Let's see if we are capable of taking these two days among the best and we can beat them".
PODIUM FOR ENRIC MAS
"It's the initial objective. Seeing the participation we think we can fight for it, but after these 10 stages the group of favorites we have already seen the level they have. Both Remco and Roglic, who seems to be the strongest man in the race. Vingegaard is not the one from the Tour, but he is still one of the three strongest. But the real test is going to be the arrival at the Tourmalet and then Saturday, where there's ground to try things if we can."
CARLOS RODRÍGUEZ.
"Leave it. When I can answer these things, I will. Nowadays you can't say anything."
