“This is what I have worked all winter for. I really had my eyes set on this race. The podium was the goal. Had I been able to win, it would have been great… but I’m super happy to finish off some great teamwork.”

“Nobody can match Tadej’s acceleration, as he proved in the Mur de Huy. It’s his killing move. Our plan was to pace ourselves up La Redoute, but then some other favorites attacked and we just raced full gas from then on.”

“I was a different rider two years ago, when I came 4th in Liège-Bastogne-Liège. I’m now smarter than I was then, as I got more race experience. I’m definitely progressing every year.”
