Jonas Vingegaard: "It was quite hard all day"

“It’s nice obviously to retain the jersey and move closer to the overall victory. I enjoy every day in yellow. There’s two stages more, with a bit of a question mark on Saturday. We trust the organisers to ensure riders’ safety.

Today ended up being not an easy day, quite hard all day, but we made it to the finish. We wanted to catch the breakaway but we were on thin line, because we wanted Axel [Zingle] to be up there. Then, the guys from Bahrain Victorious decided to attack and I had to follow.

I think my shape is pretty good. It’s not my best yet, but hopefully I can get there for the Giro and the Tour. I will do the last two stages and then head to Catalunya and some more training.”
