« A great team effort »

«It was a great race. The team's strategy was executed perfectly, which put us in a good position at the bottom of the final climb. Victor (Lafay) and I were able to make our climb in very good conditions thanks to superb teamwork. I was in good shape today and felt good when I attacked. I gave it my all and I'm happy with how I managed my effort in the final. I wasn't sure about my physical condition, so I'm pleased with the result. Even though I would have liked to win, it bodes well for the rest of the weekend.»
