Matteo Jorgenson: “I knew I had the strongest team”

“I’m impressed with the guys today, our commitment, just following the plan we made this morning, as riders. We looked at the course and made the plan. I knew we had the strongest team for this kind of conditions and it’s nice to take full advantage and make what was a very grim day, as far as weather conditions, a nice experience, at least results wise. The plan was to take the descent and see if there was enough wind at the bottom. I looked back a few times, saw some big gaps, and from there to the finish it was about pedalling as hard as we all could. I’m in a good situation for the week-end. Now I need to warm up and then tackle tomorrow’s stage head on, stay warm and take this yellow jersey back to Nice. I know the climb to Auron very well.”
