Angry Hugh CARTHY (GBR/EF PRO CYCLING) on the final steep section before the short descent to the finish. "If I had one word for Hugh’s victory today it would be ‘grit.’ You could see he was in real physical difficulty on the crazy steep sections, but he just dig in and fought to stay at the front. And I’m sure he was in all kinds of hurt when he attacked, but he timed it beautifully and had the grit to seal the deal. Now he’s back on the podium and we’ve got everything to ride for. I’m excited for this final week to say the least." said Jonathan Vaughters, EF Pro Cycling Team CEOshare this photo

Your Stage 12 winner, Hugh CARTHY (GBR/EF PRO CYCLING): "It’s a dream come true to win. In any professional race it’s a dream come true. But to win in a Grand Tour, in a mythical climb, it doesn’t get any better than that. It’s hard to put into words. Next week is going to be exciting. Especially for the public it’s everything they want. A close race, going into the time trial. Everything is to play for. "share this photo
