After crossing the finish line of the penultimate stage of the Tour of Romandie in ninth place, Alejandro Valverde was a bit disappointed.
"This is not the day I've felt better.
Nor have I been wrong and in the first kilometers of the final climb I've worked a lot with my team to eliminate a few enemies but you must admit that today, Roman Kreuziger was the strongest and when pulled, I could not stand the pace was imposed so that their lead continued to grow until the finish.
I'm a little disappointed because I had hoped to get a better result in today's stage, and despite the rain and cold, was very motivated but recognize when others are stronger.
There is still a stage in this Tour of Romandie, a port on the course quite difficult but considering that the last sixty miles are flat and if it respects the logic, we see a sprinter imposed in Geneva. "
