Complaining about the bad luck of Roglic is becoming a very conformist position, not just in this forum but also in the wider cycling world.
It's a shame that other guys who had also probably worse bad luck don't get noticed because they are no thermonuclear like Roglic.
Fausto has a true bad luck that actually hampers him, hence why he doesn't get fangirls tweeting about him like Roglic.
After coming back from Mononuclosis so soon, but having more physical problems and crashing on this la vuelta, Fausto has been dealing with saddle sore in recent days.
It's been a quiet vuelta (apart from those 2 memorable breakaways in Basque country where he showed his prowess) because he does just his gregario duties and didn't have the top form.
It's a shame to see Fausto like this. But after 3 weeks in the legs and some rest hopefully he will find his proper level.

'Third and last day of rest here at the la vuelta. The last stages were very tough and my physical condition is not super due to a saddle sore problem'
'Riding bike with this kind of problem a lot of hours every day is painful but I'm trying to do my best, to help the team as much as I can and fighting everyday to keep the red jersey of remco evenepoell until Madrid'
'He deserves it and we all believe in this goal, and I want to thank the team for supporting me despite my condition is not at best '
'Tomorrow starts the 3rd week, we will face it as if it were the first day. Let's go!!!!'
