Enric Mas reflects on his Vuelya performance after 6th: “I don’t want to say it wasn’t a negative balance…”

After a grueling 20th and final stage of the Vuelta the Balearic Enric Mas looked at his performance in ‘his career’, where he had three third places.

I looked for the Head of Movistar fight for the podium that is far away and that they monopolize the three best Jumbo-Visma riders: Sepp Kuss, Jonas Vingegaard and Primoz Roglicfirst, second and third respectively.

“These days there are very good days in terms of personal feelings but also very bad days. We don’t know or I don’t know if it’s because of the collapse of the Tour that I haven’t been able to train like I would. liked, but it is not an excuse. We enjoyed running, we work hard every day and nothing, next year we’ll be here again,” said a critic of Mas at the beginning.

When they asked him about his assessment of his performance, this was his response: “I don’t want to say that it’s not a negative assessment, but it’s not positive because we came for a podium and looked, I think, sixth place.” .

He then said that at this point in the race and in the season the strength of all the cyclists is very fair and he hopes to improve the performance in the next races. “Now we will recover and hopefully we can fix what is coming to us, the Italian classics and enjoy them.”

Finally he was not surprised by the performance of Jumbo-Visma and considered a “positive point” which Cuss won the Vuelta.
