Dylan Teuns managed to stay away with only Giulio Ciccone resisting until the final few hundred meters: “I know that Ciccone is a very strong rider, he won a stage at the last Giro and it seemed to me the same situation as last year at the Vuelta, when I lost the victory with Woods and I knew I couldn’t make the same mistake today. So I had to stay calm and just waiting for the right moment. I tried a couple of times in the last five hundred meters and finally the third time I succeeded. I saw that had a little gap and I just kept pushing to the finish line”.share this photo

Giulio CICCONE (ITA/TREK - SEGAFREDO): “In my head I was always thinking of the stage today, I never thought I would take the Yellow Jersey. But now I have finished second in the stage and have the yellow and I am very happy."... “To get the yellow is unbelievable, this feeling is crazy. I am 24 years old and I am here for the experience and now I have the yellow jersey. Honestly, in the last climb I was only thinking about the stage especially when I saw the time and we only had two minutes. That last 100 meters was super hard. I was disappointed to finish second, but now that I have the yellow jersey, it is better.”share this photo
