“Third of the Arctic Race of Norway is a really big result for me and for the team. It's one the biggest races we take part in before La Vuelta, so I'm very happy with this final podium place. I was already standing third before the last stage started and I was hoping to keep this position. Alexander Kristoff was behind me, only two seconds behind, so I didn't want him to get bonus seconds on the way and at the finish. We moved accordingly. It was perfect that Dylan Teuns rode away and there were three guys in between.”
