Wilco Kelderman is chasing pink jersey in Giro: ‘Could be a...


“It could be a special day,” said Wilco Kelderman, the Dutch number 2 in the general classification. To put that into perspective. “Every day here is actually important.”

Kelderman is 17 seconds away from the pink jersey, now around the shoulders of the Portuguese João Almeida. Kelderman does not make any predictions. “We will undoubtedly try something. But you never know in advance what is possible. It is certain that it will be a very tough day. Maybe opportunities will come. ”

On Wednesday, in the stage won by Australian Ben O’Connor, an attack by Kelderman was expected. “The team has done everything to it,” said the Sunweb rider. “We have tried to force something. But failed to get away. Almeida was too strong for that today. ”

Almeida also spoke of a difficult day. “A difficult ride with a lot of climbing, it was not easy. However, my team has ridden perfectly and partly because of that I can continue in the leader’s jersey for another day. Team Sunweb attacked, but I felt good enough to repel the attack. Tomorrow another special day awaits us. I’m looking forward to it.”
