Vine: “We’ll have to see if I go all in on Sunday”

Jay Vine (Alpecin-Deceuninck): "Everyone is tired. I’m still putting out PBs [personal best]. Whether I can take it everyday is another question. It has been pretty flat out so we’ll see what happens. That’s also a reason why I haven’t gone for GC because I really don’t know how my body would react. This is my second Grand Tour. I guess it was just a bad day [on Peñas Blancas]. I spoke to my coach about the numbers going up the climb. I think I just went out of my comfort zone when Polanc attacked. Kudos to Carapaz, he played it really smart all day. There’s a reason why he’s been on the podium of multiple Grand Tours. This week-end, we’ll have to see if I go all in on Sunday, which will be from the GC group, I’m pretty confident, or if we spread my legs across both days."
