Gaviria feeling the pressure ahead of San Luis
Etixx-QuickStep's Fernando Gaviria will line up at the Tour de San Luis with a lot of pressure on his shoulders. After all, it was at this race exactly one year ago that he became touted as one of the top up-and-coming sprinters in the world. The Colombian sprinter says he is in good physical condition ahead of the stage race in Argentina.
"The training went well to get to San Luis in a good condition and to try to get a victory," Gaviria said in a recent interview. "The race made me known on the WorldTour. It was the race that allowed me to be where I am now, as great as is the Etixx-Quick Step team. I feel the pressure more. Sometimes I feel more nervous than usual. I am aware that many expect a lot of me in San Luis; for that I'm working, forever trying to win."
