But they ask to be Pogacar in the Tour of Spain
El ciclista de Movistar ataca en el último puerto y logra su primer triunfo de etapa en la ronda española
The cycling world is analyzing tactics and numbers in the absence of Pogacar from the competition. Riders like Gall, Roglic, Mas, Carapaz, and Onley are conserving energy to attack at the end of stages when others tire. Gall successfully attacked 6.9 kilometers from the finish, aided by his Decathlon team, but Enric Mas ultimately won the stage, his first in the Vuelta. Mas defended the red jersey, saying it gave him "wings" and that winning while wearing it was a special feeling.
