Epic breakaway, epic finish.
"It was another crazy day. Everyone rode this stage like it was a classic, even though we're in the third week of the Tour de France. The pace was hellish. I'm really happy to be playing a leading role again in this edition, after some more complicated days. In the last kilometer, I tried my luck because I knew it would be difficult to win the sprint. It didn't work out, but at least I have no regrets. I'm feeling much better these days. Felix's victory in Courchevel really freed us up. Now, there's a big mountain stage on Saturday to finish the job collectively and get back to the Champs-Élysées on Sunday with pride."
-Ben O'Connor
The best eloquent and heartfelt interview.
