The small-scale statistics of homogeneous isotropic turbulence of dilute polymer solutions is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations of a simplified viscoelastic fluid model. It is found that polymers only partially suppress the turbulent cascade below the Lumley scale, leaving a remnant energy flux even for large elasticity. As a consequence, fluid acceleration in viscoelastic flows is reduced with respect to Newtonian turbulence, whereas its rescaled probability density is left unchanged. At large scales the velocity field is found to be unaffected by the presence of polymers.
