Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma): “Why not [lose La Roja to Jan Polanc]? He already took the jersey in the Giro and we wore it both [in 2019]. Again, these are super sweet worries for the Slovenians. For me it was a hard day, super hot, and we went already all out on the first climb. We saw quite some action today and we can expect the same in the next days with teams who have different contenders. But we saw our guys did a great job and we’ll do our best. I was just two guys behind [when Alejandro Valverde crashed]. I don’t know how he is. He’s one of the biggest names in cycling so hopefully he’ll be fine and he’ll soon be back.”
