Fabio Aru has returned to racing at today’s Tre Valli Varesine for the first time since he wont he Vuelta, and he produced some great work to help Vincenzo Nibali, his Astana teammate, win the race.
“In the last few days I’ve had a chance to take in what it feels like to win the Vuelta, I’ve watched the videos of the race and enjoyed my victory. I haven’t celebrating that much. I’ve done some extra things in the afternoons and some interviews but I’ve always kept my morning clear for training,” Aru explained to Gazzetta dello Sport.
Aru also released his last few races of the year, where he misses the Tour of Lombardy, where he was a top ten finisher last year, due to sponsor commitments.
“I’m riding Milan-Turin on Thursday too and then I head to Kazakhstan for the Tour of Almaty on October 4. From there I’ll travel to Abu Dhabi.”
“I saw the new finale with the climbs of the Ghisallo, Sormano, Civiglio and San Fermo della Battaglia the other day and it’s a great finale. But you’ve also got to understand the sponsors. I ride for a Kazakhstani team and it’s only right they get to see me too.”
