Carthy seals Vuelta Austrias title
Hugh Carthy (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) has taken the overall classification at the Vuelta Asturias beating teammate Sergio Pardilla to the title. Carthy took the lead on the opening stage after soloing to victory on the Alto de Acebo.
“I wanted to win the first stage on El Acebo. We thought it was possible and therefore, we worked very hard that day,” said Carthy. “I knew that I had to attack to gain time on my rivals before the last two days. I’m glad it worked out. It’s always difficult to control a race. I had a bad moment on the climb yesterday but to win a race, you have to be able to overcome such moments. I suffered but you always have to suffer in order to win.”
This season has been Carthy’s best to date, enjoying a breakthrough performance at the Volta a Catalunya where he finished ninth overall.
