Luis Leon Sanchez wants to help a teammate win the Vuelta a Espana before trying to win the Worlds Road Race either himself or for a Spanish teammate.
“I want to improve my condition in the Vuelta a Burgos to arrive on top form for the Vuelta,” Sánchez said in a press statement.
“Astana is fielding a top team; we have the responsibility of fighting for the win and I want to do my part. Nibali, Aru, and Landa are great riders, and we are fighting for nothing less than the win.”
He spoke about the cohesion between the Spanish team which helped Sanchez to win Gold in the first ever European Games Road Race.
“In Baku at the European championships, we showed that we know how to race as a team. I’ve been studying the Richmond course already, looking over the videos sent to me from the team.”
