The old hand can still do it. Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) does not show any signs of fatigue even at the age of 41 and confidently puts off his much younger opponents on the following places. Yesterday, Friday, he had to admit defeat to Tim Wellens (Lotto – Soudal) at the Trofeo Serra de Tramuntana. Today, however, he could not be beaten. The Trofeo Pollenca - Port d`Andratx finally went confidently to Alejandro Valverde, who was unstoppable on the final climb.
