Checking the Gap V23-13
Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) looks back to see just how much of a gap he has opened up on the main GC contenders. Two of those behind are his own teammates, so perhaps he was seeing if he could get last year's winner, Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step), to tire himself out on the climb. It didn't work. Yet, with the Red Jersey losing time behind, all Kuss has to do is hang with this group and he will be the next to pull on the leader's jersey.
