'Yates didn't live up to the hype' | La Vuelta enters its final crucial stages

The Bradley Wiggins Show by Eurosport

Show Notes

Brad is joined by Graham Willgoss and Sean Kelly to discuss the latest Vuelta action as Miguel Angel Lopez was the strongest man in the misty mountains to take the Stage 18 victory.

Despite an overall improved performance from Egan Bernal and no sign of the back issues that have been a problem for him for some time, Brad believes it will be a 'tall order' for the Colombian to claim a podium place in the race.

Brad was also full of praise for Jack Haig and his attempts to push for the red jersey for Bahrain Victorious. 'He's rallied those guys round him really, he's become a real leader and shone this race'.

There's a look at 'hot and cold' Adam Yates after a disappointing effort having promised more beforehand

And finally, are Primoz Roglic and his Jumbo-Visma team almost too humble in playing down the Slovenian's success as he aims for back-to-back Vuelta titles?
