Simon has placed 3rd behind Rabobank’s Oscar Freire in today’s stage of the Ruta del Sol.

“I didn’t come to this race with high expectations so to achieve a 3rd placing today is a good result. It was a tough up hill finish into a head wind, which suited me quite well. Hendy and the boys did a great job getting me up there for the finish”.

The riders will contest a 10.9km time trial around the streets of Murcia tomorrow followed by the final stage on Thursday.

RESULTS – Stage 3, Ruta del Sol
1st Oscar Freire (Spa) Rabobank
