“I think we can speak of relief. Last week wasn't great for us. Maybe we didn't approach the Tour in our best condition, but we're improving and we can finally show what we came for. Today we knew that the last corner could be tricky and we took it well. I was launched perfectly. I'm happy with the way we're starting this second week. We are already on the tenth stage and we had done five sprints without winning, it was too many. But the whole team continued to believe in it and they deserve this victory. For the green jersey, Biniam Girmay started very strong. He is a lot of points ahead. Before thinking about the points classification, we first wanted a stage victory. Now that we have it, we will see what is still possible for the green jersey.”
