Ne samo Jumbo Visma, na tleh tudi celotna ekipa UAE

V prvi etapi dirke po Španiji so se na ekipnem kronometru zaradi vode na cesti na tleh znašli člani ekipe Jumbo Visma, skupaj s Primožem Rogličem. Na žalost so padli tudi člani ekipe UAE Team Emirates, tudi Tadej Pogačar.  Na srečo ni prišlo do hujših poškodb. Najhuje jo je skupil Fernando Gaviria.

Kaos v prvi etapi so občutili tudi člani ekipe Deceuninck - Quick Step, ki jim je pot zaprl spremljevali avto ekipe Jumbo Visma in jih verjetno prikrajšal za kakšno sekundo. Kot je zapisal Philippe Gilbert, so bili ob zmago.

A superb effort by the team today, but in the end we just missed out on the win and the red jersey because of the Jumbo Visma car who was still standing in our way. Such a shame! ???????? #LaVuelta19 #season17 #TTT
