Tobias Foss to support Roglic at 2023 Giro d'Italia: "Winning is the most important thing"

The World Time Trialist champion Tobias Foss has found renew ambition after his world time trial title that chocked all cycling world."After my world title, I can say that anything is possible. I just have to believe in myself." said during Jumbo-Visma team presentation.

At 25, with this mindset and being a former Tour de l'Avenir winner, Foss always had that general classification man skills(being 9th at Giro 2021 edition) but at Jumbo-Visma it will not be easy for him to have his chances.

Foss will ride again next year Giro a race where he already finished inside the top 10 ,9th, but with Roglic on the team the focus will be on the Slovenian. "We are putting everything on Primoz Roglic. I can live with that. We're going for overall wins. Personally, I can go for top 10, maybe top five. But winning is the most important thing. And then Primoz is a better card," he stated.

But he is on his last year of contract with the team and seems to be open up to other possibilities "Yes, there are a lot of leaders here. And I'm going into my last year. You have to take things like that with you. At the moment I am very happy here. I just have to improve myself and then opportunities will follow, in whatever team" said Foss.

And his goal of winning a general classification did not disappeared "But a classification will always be a dream, yes, wherever I will ride," Foss stated. Right now Foss is scheduled for Volta ao Algarve, Paris-Nice, Vuelta a Catalunya, Tour de Romandie and the Giro.
