“It also depends on how the stage unfolds, the quality of my teammates, and how I’ll be feeling. Day by day, stage by stage, that’s how we have to approach it now. Jumbo-Visma has three riders in the top 10, which is an advantage over everyone, but tomorrow will be a stage where the legs will decide.”
“Tomorrow the climbs will be a bit less steep, but we’ll have to wait and see. It’s my first time doing a stage in the Pyrenees, so it’s a new chapter beginning. I’m curious about myself, the Jumbos, and particularly the UAE Team Emirates. I hope to be up there, and we can do our best,” concluded the leader of Soudal Quick-Step.
