Thomas Gachignard: “It's improbable”
"This morning I almost didn’t believe anymore, even though I wanted to do everything I could to try and keep that polka-dot jersey. My idea was to break away and I tried really hard to do that at the beginning of the stage. Then once we reached the first summit, I completely crumbled because I had already given everything I had in me. At the end of the stage, I was ready...
Florian Lipowitz: “I have to keep improving”
"I’m very happy with my Paris-Nice. It's a great result to finish second in the general classification and with the white jersey. Compared to last year, when I started getting results, it's very different because I have to keep improving. I have to show that I'm still there and capable of performing."
Mads Pedersen: “I can finally say I won the sprinters’ jersey in Paris-Nice”
"I wanted to go in the break and do everything I could to get the 10 points in the intermediate sprint. If I could do that without Matteo [Jorgenson] scoring, then the jersey was secured no matter the result on the finish line. It’s super nice to win the green jersey. I already wore it a few times in the race but lost it on the last day. Now I can finally say I won the...
Magnus Sheffield: “You can never give up”
“It’s really unbelievable. I’ve been 2nd so many times now… It’s my first victory at World Tour level and it means so much. Cycling is really… It’s just so hard to win, in any race. The team has really always believed in me, in the tough times. Today, we made a really good plan. Josh [Tarling] was just incredible over the first climb....
Matteo Jorgenson: “It’s incredible to say I’ve won Paris-Nice two years in a row”
“I feel relief, more than anything. There’s a lot of stress coming off. I’ve been thinking about this week for the last three months. It’s nice to do it, to know that I did everything I could, and that it worked out. I’m glad it looked like we had things under control. I have to credit my team. I was so well supported this week. We know I would...
Jorgenson and Sheffield dance on the USA’s Promenade
The Promenade des Anglais (“the Englishman’s promenade”) in Nice smiled at the USA’s stars on Sunday. Magnus Sheffield (Ineos Grenadiers) made the most of an animated stage 8, marked by the many attacks of Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek), to claim his first victory in the World Tour. In his wake, Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike) finished second of the...
The final showdown
The weather conditions have been brutal but Paris-Nice finally reaches its final destination, and patches of blue sky may even accompany the riders as they take on the final challenges of the 83rd edition of the Race to the Sun. Matteo Jorgenson holds on to a strong lead, 37’’ ahead of Florian Lipowitz, with Thymen Arensman (+1’20’’) in...
Thomas Gachignard: “I wasn't expecting it at all”
"I wasn't expecting to keep the jersey today at all. It's a really good day for the team, because we also had two riders at the front and Jordan Jegat finished 5th in the stage. During the final climb, I started thinking about the jersey and I told myself that, if there was a misunderstanding, I could get away with it and maybe even stay one point ahead. I'll be able to show...
Matteo Jorgenson: “Under control”
“We know very well that Paris-Nice is never over... until it is over! A day like today is always stressful and it wasn't easy, the conditions were tough even if it was nothing like yesterday. But everything went well, and the situation remained under control as far as we were concerned. I think that this lead may be enough for me to win tomorrow, but I also know how nervous...
