Stage 4 Reims-Nancy:
"Today the team did a super job for me and put me in a perfect position. I didn't have to use too much energy during the race so it was set up for me to win, but Viviani was just a little faster at the end. I was there fighting with him side by side and if I had a bit extra to give I would have made it. So, it was a bit disappointing but I am still proud of a second place and I will continue to work towards a stage win. Jasper was the perfect lead out man for me. Today he showed how talented he is for such a young rider. He rides with passion and on feeling and has proved he is more than good enough to be at the Tour. This gives me confidence for the rest of the race."
-Alexander Kristoff. 2nd place.
