That Daniel Felipe Martínez won the Volta al Algarve was not in the budget of many, especially due to the presence of a final time trial in which his teammate Filippo Ganna could cut the little time lost in the general classification. However, he had a day of inspiration and now celebrates his third conquest in stage races.
“I am surprised, this morning on the bus we were thinking of Filippo (Ganna) as our man for the general classification”, pointed out the Colombian who finished 4th in the CRI with only 6″ behind the Italian.
With a wrong start to the season, he has been finding the ideal sensations. “Day after day I felt better, but today is still a clear surprise for me”, ‘Dani’ was honest, who had lost his national title in the modality at the hands of someone who is not a specialist like Miguel López. .
“All the work was thinking about Ganna because the race had a time trial and that’s why I feel surprised,” added a Martínez who will continue his schedule with Paris-Nice that will start in two weeks.
