the Belgian Tim Wellens (UAE Tem Emirates), winner of third stage of the 69 Cycling Tour of Andalusia-Ruta del Sol between Alcalá de Guadaíra (Seville) and Alcalá de los Gazules (Cádiz), ensured that the day was “perfect” for his team because of their partial victory and because “Tadej (Pogacar) has no problem staying in the lead.”
The Belgian cyclist, winner of the Andalusian race in 2018 and in three consecutive stages ending in Alcalá de los Gazules, gave more value to this personal victory and to his team for facing the weather conditions, because “the strong wind” put them “in trouble”.
Wellens highlighted the statements given by his team entering the breakaway “It allowed us to strengthen the team’s work and then gain confidence with the goal of finishing”, where he said he felt “very good” and was able to “win the streets of Alcalá de los Gazules”.
The Belgian, who on Monday was third in the Clásica Jaén Paraíso Interior won by his teammate Pogacar, assured that the challenge is for “Tadej to maintain the lead and be crowned champion on Sunday in Alhaurín de la Torre (Málaga) “, although he warned that they expected “attacks from riders close to the general”.
