“It was the perfect way to finish and I couldn't be happier," said Magnus Cort at the finish. His teammate Jonas Rutsch also made several big moves in the breakaway throughout the stage. “Jonas had an incredible ride today and then Magnus could smell the victory. Those two were playing off each other,” said Neilson Powless.		share this photo
"I’m happy about winning the general classification, however, I have some mixed feelings. All the events came thick and fast today: I had a mechanical ahead of the first climb and had to chase hard to get back on, and Primoz then crashed twice. We tried to wait for him, but when he went down for the second time, we had a strong leading group in front of us and were trying to fight for the stage win. Several teams were riding very hard out in front and we didn't want to lose our current position. It was just crazy today. I don't know if I can be too happy about the victory at the moment, because it's never the ideal way to win a race. Of course, our goal this year coming into the race was to defend our victory from last year, and now I'm standing here on the last day in the yellow jersey. That was a bit unexpected and I am still somewhat speechless. I have to say thanks again to the whole team, which worked so hard all week and supported me well to make this possible." - Maximilian Schachmann		share this photo
