"It was super tough, the heat made it hard and also the entry to the climb with such a big group meant it was quite nervous. I didn't have the best of feelings, but then I saw I had [only] lost 20, 30 seconds, so I can be happy with that, actually."
"With temperatures soaring to 40C degrees mid-stage, Kuss also pointed to the heat as affecting the whole day's racing, with a very slow build-up then culminating in the high-speed dash to the corner of the steepest segment of the ascent."
"Now 13th overall, Kuss looked to regain momentum deeper into the Vuelta, with stage 9 to Granada over various fearsome ascents in the Sierra Nevada arguably his next best opportunity."
