Egan Bernal never surrenders: “There is a lot of turn”

Sixth in the general of the Italian turn, Egan Bernal continues with the illusion of fighting the general in the remainder of the mountain.

He is the best Colombian in Italian competition. He is sixth to 4:43 of the leader Isaac del Toro and although he gave time in stage 17 with the rise to Mortirolo, he warned that there are options to go for more.

“We tried luck once again, but our rivals are very strong. The most important thing is that there is a lot. That is what I did today and what I want to do from now on, “he explained.

Four stages are subtracted from the race. Two are high mountain, one on average and the last flat in Rome. In the Picos de Film, Sestriere and the Jaux’s Col are justified to the profile in which the Ineos pedalist may deduct difference with the Mexican.

“I’m glad Isaac del Toro. I think he is a good boy and deserves today’s victory.”Bernal added.

In stage 18, the 144 -kilometer route between Morbegno and Cesano Maderno will have a second and two third category port.
