Primoz Roglic made his seasonal debut in the colors of BORA-hansgrohe in Paris-Nice. However, the Slovenian could not convince and only finished tenth in the general classification. Trainer Marc Lamberts is looking for answers.
Roglic made the most talked-about transfer of the season by exchanging Visma-Lease a Bike for an adventure at BORA-hansgrohe. The Slovenian absolutely wants to win the Tour de France with the German WorldTour formation, as if he started the new season on a false note.
BORA disappointed in the team time trial. Primoz Roglic left his teammates behind by driving too fast. “If you are of course used to riding a team time trial with Wout van Aert… It is an adjustment if there is someone else in your wheel,” trainer Lamberts explains. The newspapaer.
Too cold, too hot
The materials from BORA-hansgrohe have also clearly been adapted for Roglic. The Slovenian had dressed too warmly in his hands and feet after a cold ride, but in the final stage he was dressed too lightly.
“Primoz suffered from hypothermia on the final day. He himself stated: I could no longer follow Victor Campenaerts on the final climb,” said Lamberts.
