“It’s a great relief to get the victory, and it took a lot of energy, almost as much as winning a monument. I’m super happy to not be alone here as the team did an awesome job, incredibly good. They timed the lead-out perfectly and I could finish it off with good legs in the end. I was twice really close to the win this week and it didn’t work out perfectly yet, but today it went very fine and we did a great job.”
