Purito can be very proud of his performance. The way he rode both grand tours is something we don't see often. Each time he came close to win it because he dared to attack as well as defend his weaker side. Brilliant in the mountains, he also gave his all in the Time Trials . Great cyclist.maltiv said:Will be interesting to see whether Valverde can steal the points jersey from Purito. In that case it'd be the second year in a row in which Purito loses the Vuelta's points jersey on the last day.
If not, he'll have won the points jersey+podium in two GT's in the same year. I assume that's a rather rare feat!
