The Danish cyclist Jonas Vingegaardwinner of the last two editions of Tour de France“dream” to win three grand tours in the same season, as he admitted in an interview broadcast this Tuesday on the TV2 channel.
“Somehow I also have a dream to fight for the general classification in all three in the same yearalthough it is difficult, because in the Tour you have to give one hundred percent and if you ride in the Giro and you are not one hundred percent in the Tour, it can be difficult,” Vingegaard admitted to this Danish television.
Vingegaard, who this year competes in the Vuelta a España, indicated that he wanted to run these two races twice in the same season before seriously considering the possibility of also taking part in the Italian round and regretted that the Tour would be held between others.two great careers on the stage.
“The Tour is the big race, the most demanding, mentally and physically. If it is the other way around, that the Tour comes first, then it is easier to try. Now maybe someone thinks not to do it because they want to win the Tour as many times as possible,” declared the Danish cyclist, open to trying all three at some point.
Vingegaard has also been open to the possibility of participating in Paris Olympics in 2024 or at the next World Cup, which will be held in Switzerland, although the route of the tests will be decisive.
“I have to see what the routes are. I don’t think Paris is the route that suits me best, but I want to run some Games. The World Cup in Switzerland should be a mountain race, but it might not be either, so we’ll see,” he said.
