“I’m very happy to finish my first Grand Tour. The feeling to finally arrive on the Champs-Elysées, after three weeks of efforts and suffering, was great. I felt really good in this last stage and I love this finish. My sixth place against the best sprinters in the world is a nice result, even though my ambition was to do better. Finishing this Tour was crucial to acquire experience and to come back stronger in the future. I will continue working hard for my next goals, with first the World Championships in Glasgow.”
