8th Albert Arenas (+19,394):
“Today’s eighth position is my best result this season. It was a good race, after a difficult warm up, which has changed expectations a bit. Despite everything, we have not stopped believing. I have been catching riders in the race and little by little I was feeling comfortable and that has allowed me to do a few last laps like the first riders. The eighth position feels good to me, and from here, we will continue to improve. Today I want to congratulate my teammate for his result, we will fight to get there.”
