Dylan GROENEWEGEN (NED/JUMBO - VISMA): “Today was a very tough stage because of the crosswinds. There was a continuous fight for positions and a continuous racing at the limit. It was far from easy. The team did a perfect job and after the last corner they put me in an ideal position. I am very proud of my success and especially proud of how we rode as a team”, the stage winner said. “It was difficult at times, but my teammates got me through it. In the end, we remained with seven leaders. It was a matter of waiting and to not start the sprint too early. When Trentin accelerated, I started my sprint and I was able to finish it off. Two stages, two victories: I am very happy. Tomorrow there is another flat stage. It will be a tough one again due to the wind, but we are going for it again.”

2nd Ivan GARCIA CORTINA (ESP/BAHRAIN - MERIDA): "My teammates and me were fought good today. We were here taking care for Sonny, but I found my self in the good position at the front and couldn't look back any more and decided to my very best. I learned a lot out of today's race how to go with a sprint. It my be a bit tricky when to go for it. Sometimes it is too early or sometimes too late. I felt good today for starting it on right time. I am happy for my result today. I am not disappointed at all, but I also want to win. For my head I need a victory and hopefully it will come soon".
