Last night the celebration for Vingegaard's stage victory and the red jersey conquest, this morning the most bitter of surprises: 18 Visma Lease a Bike bicycles were stolen overnight.
Damage calculable around 250 thousand euros, with the need to quickly find a solution because - in addition to filing a report with the authorities - it will be necessary to borrow some bicycles to race or at least have some in the team car to use in case of mechanical failure during the race.
Unfortunately, this is not the first theft case at the beginning of this Vuelta - we recall the case of Shimano manager Joost Hoetelmans and the incident involving Axel Zingle, also from Visma - and our country, which welcomed the race with unexpected warmth, certainly does not look good.
