Quote

Speaking seconds after the stage finish, the stage winner and new Maglia Azzurra Tadej Pogacar, said: “The team pulled all day so I thought it would be better if I’d give it a go. We did everything right. It was like a mountain top finish today so it’s similar to last year when I took the lead on Stage 4. Tomorrow it will be another stage like today’s and Saturday the queen stage so I still have to pay attention to the others.”
