Teams & Riders Sepp Kuss is the next Sepp Kuss thread

[Extinction]

And just think about how amazing it would be if they not only managed to win all three GTs in a season, but did it with three different riders!

Congratulations to a fine John Tomac!

Great race Sepp!

Great ride today. Was part of an amazing team result, Jumbo demolished the stage.

Reminiscent of Pogacar at Amstel Gold race

Love to see it! Can’t believe he’s riding like this in his third GT of the season.

The contrast between riders celebrating can be so fascinating. Sometimes they can look nearly frightening from all the adrenaline release. Meanwhile Sepp is beaming like lit from within 🫠🥰😍🤩🥰😍

 

[Potomac]

Happy for the man.
We keep hearing he doesn't want a leadership role, and I believe it.
But some people have greatness thrust upon them. Time will tell.

I mean, 2 GTs aside a great time to have it now in secret with Roglic and Vinge here. Kuss will have zero pressure at all for GC.

All about GC Kuss. If his legs hold, he could be in the thick of this. If he doesn’t lose all of his advantage on the ITT, he could be top 3 on Angliru if he isn’t a worker bee.

 

[Scarponi]

He always has a bad day in the mountains, will be interesting to see now if it was because he is saving himself or was always a true bad day

 

[CyclistAbi]

Great win on stage 6 and and as for the gulp. It's his third GT this season. It's only apropriate to take three (six) gulps.

When Kuss crashed today immediately three yellow jersey where there to bring him back.

Jumbo-Visma: 'If our rivals think Kuss is a Vuelta GC threat, so much the better'

Sports director Marc Reef says American will enjoy protected rider status

LOL. It is Jumbo who is afraid of him!!

He learned how to drink like that in the CU dorms.

 

[Gargamel35]

Well Roglič is on the way out so it's a good timing finding the second GC star in JV.

Fairly sure that was not Jumbo, but the train for Hugo, bringing him back.

Yes, and they‘re yellow, so he‘s right.

Sure, it's his third GT, but it depends on how you look at it. He's not in the top-100 of riders with the most race days this season. And the Vuelta is probably the race that suits him the most. A little more relaxed, a little more easy going.

And rampas inhumanas!

 

[Potomac]

Will he take red today?

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Sepp Kuss will be in red!

 

[Potomac]

Has any American worn a GT leader's jersey since Chris Horner?

 

[Red Rick]

Roglic only celebrates when Kuss takes the lead

 

[LookProGoSlow]

I know his ITT may be an issue, but he has a decent buffer now, so to me Kuss is a legit contender for red. What am I missing perhaps?
