"In the end, I focused on enjoying the fans"

Mavi Garcia: “I’ve had lots of problems during this Tour, two crashes… I was unlucky and I was in very good shape so it was a bit sad because I wanted to be up there but it wasn’t possible with all these issues. Today, with the time lost, I wasn’t sure what I could do because my body wasn’t responding so well but I wanted to try at least, to not go home like this. There wasn’t a great cooperation in the break but I had nothing to lose so I tried. It could have been better if we had gotten more time but I’m satisfied. In the end, I had done everything I could, so I just focused on enjoying the fans on the roadside. It’s a privilege to do this race here. It was very hard but the people push you and I was also encouraging them. It was great.”
