Primoz Roglic does not retire and shows up at the start of the sixteenth stage of the Giro d'Italia . The Slovenian, however, confirms that his conditions are not the best and has no expectations for the final outcome of the race: "I'm better than yesterday, we'll see how it goes - said Roglic - I don't think it's so realistic to do the general classification, I have to fight to survive and I came to the start anyway. Yesterday I couldn't ride my bike, we'll see if I can do it today.

Roglic then confirmed that Giulio Pellizzari, his trusted domestique until now, will have space to do his own race: “For sure, he has the legs, he’s fine, so yes.”
