Your Stage 6 winner, Tiesj BENOOT (BEL/SUNWEB). “It was a really hard day, full gas from the start,” beamed a jubilant Benoot at the finish. “Quickstep immediately started to pull from the start of the stage. I knew it was a good situation for me; I had really good legs. I like the days where you have to push all day and today was a day like this. We came into the final in a really good situation. I went in the counter attack with Nibali and I felt I still had something left so I went full gas to Søren. After he did his pull, it was only ten kilometres to the finish. I’m really happy to get a win for the team today. We did really good preparation with some really nice time gaps earlier in the year. We’ve put a lot of effort into the team with the classics guys here. Unfortunately, we cannot ride the classics this year but I’m sure in the future we can achieve some nice things there.” | share this photo |

Race leader, Maximilian Schachmann (GER - Bora - Hansgrohe), before the summit finish finale on Saturday. "I crashed with about 800 metres to go but I'm well. The race was full on and the guys were going full gas down. I had a small gap and came back but I think I was a bit too fast. I made a mistake but managed to get back on my bike. I still have the yellow jersey and tomorrow will certainly be a tough stage but I felt good in the last long climb. Today we rode a bit defensively but there is no doubt tomorrow will be all out." - Maximilian Schachmann | share this photo |
