“Julien is no doubt one of the fastest riders in the world. To catch him, you have to give it all. (laughs) It seemed possible to gain time in two turns. I managed one, not the other. But my horse was fast enough. I’m delighted for him and also for all the team around us”, said Hubside rider Carlos Enrique Lopez Lizarazo.
