Following Friday’s win in Québec, Team Sunweb’s Michael Matthews (AUS) has taken his second one-day WorldTour victory in three days at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal. Michael finished off another strong display of teamwork to secure his, and the team’s, clean sweep of the Canadian WorldTour races.
Matthews said after the finish: “Wow! What can I say, I really have no words. I just can’t thank the team enough for believing in me though out this really hard year, and again the boys today were amazing. It wouldn’t have been possible without such a strong team around me, so I can’t thank them enough.”
Team Sunweb coach Arthur van Dongen (NED) added: “Michael mentioned already that this victory is for the whole team. Everyone was working really hard to go for the double here in Canada and the hard work paid off. Two WorldTour victories in three days, unbelievable.”
