The Spanish Enrique More (Movistar), third overall, has ensured, after leading Remco Evenepoel by 22 seconds and the second by 37, Primoz Roglic, that “even Madrid” can “dream of winning” the Vuelta, after a good stage with Miguel Angel Lopez.
“I always say that I go day by day, but we can even dream of winning in Madrid. We keep working on the problems we had some time ago, which don’t go away overnight, but in the race I’m enjoying myself and I trust myself more”. said Mas, second in the stage and now third overall, 2 min 01 s behind Evenepoel and 37 behind Roglic.

“It’s a few seconds in our favor. Yesterday there were some more, but the important thing is that I am happy, happy with these sensations today,” Mas said.
And he added: “On Saturday I managed the effort poorly, I wanted to close the gap too quickly, and today, on the little drop before Hazallanas, when there was a fall that cut the group, I started a little behind that Jumbo attack , but I have always maintained my rhythm”, he explained his career.
Did it help Lopez?
But he has been criticized, because sometimes he did not give relief to the cyclist from Boyacá in the ascent.
“Then I have caught them and then I have been able to release them, working in the end together with Miguel Ángel (Lopez) and David (de la Cruz). It is true that the interests of López and mine have not met -I am in the fight for the podium and he was looking for the stage-, but at the same time I also wanted to collaborate to make time”, he pointed out.
“Perhaps the two of us have kept a little there because we believed that the other had a little more strength. Cycling is like that, sometimes you have to play intelligently. But I’m happy, happy,” Mas summed up the day.
