Aitor González: "I dedicate this victory to Santiago Perez"
The Spanish cyclist Aitor González (Kelme), dedicated his victory in the eighth stage of Giro to his teammate Santiago Perez, who suffered a horrific fall early on in the stage and is now undergoing scans in the hospital.
"It is an important triumph, but obviously what has happened to Perez overshadows all our thoughts. It is a great blow which hurts us all, since Santi very was in great form and motivated for this race and next to me he was the strong man for the general," said Aitor González.
Today's triumph in the Giro was the 81st time a Spaniard has won a stage in the Giro, but only one Spainiard has won the race outright: Miguel Indurain, who won the race in 1992, 1993 and was third in 1994. He won the Tour of France on each of those occasions too!
