Jakobsen: "There is no easy day for a sprinter in La Vuelta"

Fabio Jakobsen (Deceuninck-Quick Step): “There is no easy day for a sprinter in La Vuelta. I think the easiest days are the sprint stages, but then the final is nervous. That’s part of the race but I’m happy I made it to the finish. We’ll see tomorrow but I think the biggest fight here is against the heat. Sometimes, it was 40ºC today. You have to drink a lot, and we’ll see what’s left in the legs tomorrow.”
