After a long delay we finally had the stage winner's podium ceremony with Pascal ACKERMANN (GER/BORA - HANSGROHE): "I felt good today and was optimistic that we could be successful. The guys supported me throughout the stage and so I still had good legs at the finish. In the finale I was headbutted by Sam and I finished second. The jury then relegated him after an objection. It's not exactly the way I wanted to win, but I think the decision was right. We still have a long way to go to Madrid, there are a couple more chances for the fast men, so I hope we can be successful there." | share this photo |
