Sepp Kuss proved himself to be a super-domestique and could very well eye the opportunity to lead the team at a Grand Tour. Primo\u017e Rogli\u010d already does and it seems like the team believes he\u2019s got the Vuelta in the bag. Because there is no other explanation for letting Sepp Kuss into a solo attack yesterday while the rest of the GC hopefuls still had their domestiques to follow. However, Primo\u017e Rogli\u010d indeed didn\u2019t need Sepp and stayed on Alejandro Valverde\u2019s wheel till the finish line. Both of them strengthened their position in relation to the third Tadej Poga\u010dar and the fourth Miguel \u00c1ngel Lop\u00e9z while Sepp Kuss enjoyed a stunning win.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">He even had time to high-five the fans! \ud83d\ude4c Watch <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JumboVismaRoad?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JumboVismaRoad<\/a>&#39;s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/seppkuss?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@seppkuss<\/a> bring home a mightily impressive solo win on stage 15 of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LaVuelta19?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LaVuelta19<\/a> \ud83c\udfa5 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IazYWuDkOL\">pic.twitter.com\/IazYWuDkOL<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Velon CC (@VelonCC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/VelonCC\/status\/1170760279719907328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 8, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async data-src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<h4><strong>Stage 15 results<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>1.
