Tom Dumoulin stays the first overall at the Vuelta a Espana. But the Giant-Alpecin rider is not the most favourite to win this three-week race. With only three seconds ahead of Fabio Aru (Astana Pro Team). Team manager Giuseppe Martinelli explained that the fight for the red jersey will be hard.
"I hope that Dumoulin will have some bad legs, because up until today he has been going strongly," team manager Giuseppe Martinelli told VeloNews . "It’s going to be hard. My feeling is that we came out of the time trial on our feet. It wasn’t a victory, for sure, but it kept us in the game. There will be ground to drop Tom, and for sure, his team is weaker than ours. But you always find allies, not because they want to help directly, but because they are in the same situation. And we already tried to drop him on the climbs, some will say we made mistakes, but this isn’t PlayStation."
