‘Never underestimate Elisa Longo Borghini’ – Vuelta Femenina leader Vollering sees final stage threats

Demi Vollering is in prime position before the final stage of La Vuelta Femenina, with the red leader’s jersey on her back, a clear cut margin to second and a powerful SD Worx-Protime team in full force to support her through a summit finale that plays to her strengths. 

Still the Dutch rider has learnt the hard way that red can slip away in the most unexpected of ways so she is unlikely to let her guard down, particularly as second-placed Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek) is showing no signs of an early concession.
