Aurélien Paret-Peintre
« I had a great day. »
«I had a fantastic day. It's the team's first victory of the season, which makes up for the first stage where I was very disappointed with my fourth place finish. Everyone was exceptional from start to finish.
My legs were on fire, and that almost cost me because I ended up in the first breakaway. In the final, the lads put me in the ideal position. It's nothing but joy.
Next week, I will tackle the Boucles Drôme-Ardèche with the same mindset to prepare for Paris-Nice, where I will be ambitious.»
