[Stage 14 to ] Lagos is still left; a crucial day because it's a hard climb and being on a wheel will not count. We will see how Menchov reacts, because the fatigue comes to all of us and I'm still having good days. I feel good, and although I wanted to reduce the gap here, I came to the Vuelta to win and I will keep on trying. Roberto Heras

![[Looking back on yesterday, the six bonus seconds Heras scored weren't intended to be a cushion for tomorrow.] We hadn't prepared anything ... But we were in front and Vicioso launched the sprint.

![The team has been working together very well in the last mountain stage, and I did not have any problem to control the race, ... There were attacks, but maybe [Stage 18] was easier for us. Still, three stages remain, but Madrid is closer every day, although we cannot relax. The stages that remain are already easier to control, and I will come to the time trial with a good cushion of time in my favour. - Roberto Heras Quotes](/pic/img/img.php?text=VGhlIHRlYW0gaGFzIGJlZW4gd29ya2luZyB0b2dldGhlciB2ZXJ5IHdlbGwgaW4gdGhlIGxhc3QgbW91bnRhaW4gc3RhZ2UsIGFuZCBJIGRpZCBub3QgaGF2ZSBhbnkgcHJvYmxlbSB0byBjb250cm9sIHRoZSByYWNlLCAuLi4gVGhlcmUgd2VyZSBhdHRhY2tzLCBidXQgbWF5YmUgW1N0YWdlIDE4XSB3YXMgZWFzaWVyIGZvciB1cy4gU3RpbGwsIHRocmVlIHN0YWdlcyByZW1haW4sIGJ1dCBNYWRyaWQgaXMgY2xvc2VyIGV2ZXJ5IGRheSwgYWx0aG91Z2ggd2UgY2Fubm90IHJlbGF4LiBUaGUgc3RhZ2VzIHRoYXQgcmVtYWluIGFyZSBhbHJlYWR5IGVhc2llciB0byBjb250cm9sLCBhbmQgSSB3aWxsIGNvbWUgdG8gdGhlIHRpbWUgdHJpYWwgd2l0aCBhIGdvb2QgY3VzaGlvbiBvZiB0aW1lIGluIG15IGZhdm91ci4g&author=ICBSb2JlcnRvIEhlcmFzICAgIA==&num=6 "The team has been working together very well in the last mountain stage, and I did not have any problem to control the race, ...
