Alexander Kristoff moved closer to 100 career victories, with a perfect timed sprint to win stage 3 of the Vuelta a Andalucia. The veteran Norwegian has now won 97 races in his career.
“The finis. was a bit harder than I was hoping, it was going quite a lot up to the last kilometre, so my legs were not fresh, and then I think we did two mistakes with the two lead-out guys. They are not used to being the last man in the lead-out. They are more climbers, not really used to this situation, so they kind of went the wrong side of the Ineos guys two times. So then I lost a lot of speed. I think I could have taken it much easier. But at the end, it was really close, I was lucky I had still enough power in the legs to pass in the last few metres.”
-Alexander Kristoff. Going well at 37-years-old!
