Giro d’Italia 2023: 'I don’t care' – Jay Vine attacks UAE Team Emirates in extraordinary interview
Jay Vine (UAE Team Emirates) hit out at his own team in an extraordinary interview at the Giro d’Italia, suggesting he does not care about team-mate’s Joao Almeida’s hunt for the overall victory. The Australian complained that he was being forced to help Almeida and target a top 10 finish in the general classification rather than chase stage victories, which he said goes against an agreement he made when he penned a contract extension with the team only last week. Ad Vine began Stage 12 in 18th place in the general classification, 12’52” back on leader Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers), with Almeida in third at 22”.
