"The Tour? We'll see. With the team we will make the programs at the end of November." Fabio Aru is still not ready to decide his priorities for next season even if the general manager of Astana, Alexander Vinokourov, has hinted that he will be the captain in France and the other star of the Kazakh team, Vincenzo Nibali, will focus on the Giro d'Italia.
"With Nibali we have a dual leadership but we a very good relationship. I have not yet spoken about our programs with the team. Let's see, I am willing to do what the team asks me to do," the Sardinian told Tuttobiciweb after signing dozens of autographed photos and red Vuelta jerseys in the shop of Le Coq Sportif in Milan. The win in Spain allowed to "take another step higher in the cycling world but I'm still the same," Aru said. "For years I have had certain responsibilities, the pressure is not easy to bear but it is our job."
A fan asked him for a signature on a hat with red polka dots and he smiled: "That is a good omen for next year." Now, however, he wants to think about rest and enjoy the party prepared by the people of Villacidro, between Cagliari and Oristano. "Sunday is a special day," Aru said.
