the dutch Mathieu Van der Poel (Alpecin Fenix), which remains Leader of the Giro d’Italia after the second round contested this Saturday, in which he finished second behind the British Simon Yatesaid “I would have signed this result” before exiting the exit.
Simon Yates (BikeExchange) achieved victory in a nine -kilometer time trial on a street circuit in Budapest (Hungary), where Van der Poel lost by three seconds to Briton.
“I would have signed this result then because I did a good test in time. The difference between winning or losing is minimal. I feel so good although maybe I need a little more on the last climb. Anyway, I think he will be satisfied with my participation “, said Van der Poel, at the end of the stage.
For Dutch riders the time trial is “very strong and with many curves, where it is difficult to maintain speed”. “I’m happy with my performance. I hope I can hold the jersey for at least one day,” he concluded.
