Grøndahl Jansen contributed to the victory: "It was wonderful

CHARTRES: Dylan Groenewegen is the man named Amund Grøndahl Jansen at the Tour de France. The success of Nes on Romerike, 24 years old, is to bring one of the best spurters in the world to win stages in the Tour de France.

He did it on the 7th stage.

– It's wonderful. Very redemptive for the victory we had dreamed of since we started. We did the job and put Dylan in a good position in the difficult right wing at two kilometers, "said a smiling beginner of the Tour de France after the scene.

Happy

It was clear that the winner of the Groenewegen stage was very satisfied with the work done by the Norwegian. He gave her a good nag, but what he said to her in the time of victory, Jansen did not get along with him.

– There was so much noise and people around us there

But if he did not hear the roses from time to time, he would certainly hear it at night .

While it was nice for the entire team, there was a man who was particularly relieved after the end. Dylan Groenewegen had several spreadsheets that suited him well, but it has not been successful so far.

– He asked if everything was as it should be. It was important for him to do it.

After Thursday 's stage, which was considered tough for Edvald Boasson Hagen and Alexander Kristoff, Friday was again a stage for questions. Edvald Boasson Hagen was to lead Mark Cavendish in his Dimension Data team, while the United Arab Emirates have fully engaged Alexander Skoff's first victory in the Tour de France since 2014.

None of them n & # 39, succeeded.

Answered Cavendish manners

– I should do better, but there is a big race here, says Kristoff, who still has fourth place as his best result this year.

Kristoff acknowledged that he was not strong enough to win the stage. He nonetheless reacted to a man from Mark Cavendish on the run. Kristoff believes that Cavendish "cut" in front of him just before the finish line.

– I was going right over my head there. Mark calculated a little distance, says Kristoff

The trip from Fougeres to Chartres was the longest of this year. As a result, large parts of the scene have been characterized by transport. But on some open surfaces there was a side wind and there were trends that would explode. But there was finally a total field that opposed the last few kilometers.
