Winner Interview
“This is the best victory of my professional career. At the same time, I only have two! I went to look for it in my way, in a mountain stage, in front of everyone. It’s crazy. When we had a 12 minute lead, I knew we were going to play for the win. I thought to myself, “Focus on winning the stage! “. When I dropped Zakarin on the descent from Port de Bales, I thought I wouldn’t give up. I enjoyed it in the last 500 meters because I didn’t do that last year in my stage victory at the Giro. What a day for our team. The stage victory, the polka dot jersey and Romain going very strong.”
