Michal Kwiatkowski: 'We came here to win Paris-Nice"

March 13 ^th 2019 - 17:22

"We have been actors of the race since the start and I hold this leader's jersey today because we have shown why we came here: to win the Paris-Nice GC. In the first couple of days, the whole team had to work hard. It was difficult to stay in the front all the time with the crosswinds and the splits. But all the guys were strong. It takes a lot of motivation do do that. Since I have the yellow jersey, I'm now the leader of the team but Egan can still do great things. There are very hard stages ahead of us this weekend. For tomorrow's time trial, I will stay focused, it's a 25 km effort and it takes a lot of energy."
