“It's quite unbelievable. It feels like a dream and it's something very, very special for me and the whole team. The boys did a great job. We stayed really calm today and I cannot say that anyone made a mistake – the sprint preparation was very good and I'm unbelievably proud of how we stick together and I really enjoy working with My Boys.
“Today I was the fastest man in the peloton.
“Koen de Kort was a bit afraid that I might win again because we had a bet that, if I win three stages he has to shave his head. This is going to happen now. Since the first win we could just enjoy the Tour and easily focus on the next goals: winning stages. We have three wins already now and I'm so proud of my whole team. It's difficult to describe it with words.
“I want to finish the Tour de France and that means making it all the way to Paris and now I just have to survive another sprint stage and the Alps. It's pretty hard there, I've heard, but with the race that we've done already we can actually relax a little and that gives us a lot of extra motivation.”
