Felix Großschartner post-race: "To win is always great, to win close to Austria is even better. After stage two I said to myself just try your best day by day, and that’s what I did. It didn’t work out two times but I stayed positive and the reward came with the win today. We planned again to go into the break and that worked out well. On the last climb I had the best legs and just went for it. To win from such a strong field two weeks ahead of the Giro is special and a great boost in confidence."		share this photo

"We knew it could have been a stage for me, and already last night with the team we had decided to try to go for it," said Felix GROßSCHARTNER (AUT/BORA-HANSGROHE). "I had been showing off during the last days, but the legs weren’t feeling as good as today. It’s a valuable victory, achieved ahead of plenty of strong riders, and I want to dedicate it to my uncle, who passed away last year: he was my biggest fan, and today I know I would have made him happy. For the Austrians, the Tour of the Alps is a great opportunity to race at the highest levels on home roads, something that doesn’t happen every day. It's nice to race one of the most important - and tough – one-week races in front of your fans."		share this photo
