'My body's not really recovering as well as I'd like' - Neilson Powless battling away at Tour de France despite uneven top form
Briefly

Neilson Powless has not achieved his goal of a Grand Tour stage win or the yellow jersey during this year's Tour de France, but he has supported teammate Ben Healy. Powless made a significant contribution alongside Healy and others during the race, helping them secure yellow after stage 10. He expressed fatigue from the first ten stages but remains optimistic about his performance improving. The dynamic within the team allows him to focus on support without the pressure of individual expectations due to Healy's success.
"Honestly, my legs are smoked today. They were already smoked yesterday, but I made a good effort to get in the breakaway."
"Nobody was expecting yellow when we went in the break, at most we thought Ben would go up the GC a bit or have a chance at another stage win."
