Alejandro Valverde: "Every year we are repeating history" (19/04/2009)

"I have not been sick at all during the Amstel Gold Race, quite the opposite, but in the end yes, I noticed a few days of competition I have in the legs, as I noted also that the distance was over 250 kilometers.

The Amstel is a race I would win one day because there is still in my honors but each year is repeated more or less the same story to come here a fair bit.

Of the three classic is the most complicated for me.

In the penultimate height, the Keutenberg, has been cut a little ahead and we had to make a big effort to re-enter.

The hard fact is final and the final climb and had no strength to try anything.

However, I have reason to be happy because I got almost to the first and that is very good in the face of the Fleche Wallonne and Liege-Bastogne-Liège.

I hope to improve throughout the week.

Moreover Eusebio Unzúe his team director said:

"The team Caisse d'Epargne has worked to prepare the ground for Joaquim Rodríguez and Alejandro Valverde.

All riders complied very well with what was expected of each, but in the last two dimensions our two leaders in this race and did not feel well enough to stay ahead and we understood that it would not be possible to get the podium Dutch classic.

Hopefully today it was good work and a dress rehearsal for the rest of the week. "
