“We came here as a team with the mindset to win the race and worked hard for it all day long. My six teammates took control of the race from start to finish. However, at the finish one opponent was faster than myself. As a team we have not made a single mistake and we can therefore analyse this performance with a satisfied feeling. No matter the race, just like in Ghent-Wevelgem we showed our collective strength.That's why we can look towards the future with optimism. This race also confirms that I can race for the victory in difficult finals and that there is still a margin for progression. I am now really looking forward to my next big goal, the Scheldeprijs.”
