Cunego hopes Giro decision will help Tour bid

 

Brest - Italy's Damiano Cunego decided to miss the Giro d'Italia in May to focus on the Tour de France in the hope of becoming the first Italian winner since Marco Pantani in 1998.
"I'm Italian and so it wasn't an easy decision to miss the Giro but I've no regrets about my decision," Cunego told Reuters.
"When I saw the route of this year's Tour de France I knew I had to give it a shot this year. The time trials are much shorter than in recent years and that means I can limit my losses and perhaps gain a winning margin in the mountains. At least that's the plan."

Asked if the victory would be devalued with no Contador racing, Evans stated flatly: "Not really.
"A lot of people have asked me about this and I'm not annoyed about it, but not really, no.

 

Tour favourite Evans unfazed by Contador's absence
