If Jonathan Milan's first place in the second stage of the Giro d'Italia has been surprising, David Dekker's second place can be considered even more so. The Dutchman from Arkéa-Samsic made a great comeback thanks to the work of his teammates and was close to coming back against a Milan that, yes, seemed unstoppable today. He was very happy with the second place after the race:
"Second place is fine. It was very erratic, but my teammates positioned me perfectly, I lacked a bit of punch right at the end, that was it. I think all the riders did very well today, For me this is very good for my confidence, this helps me a lot. Coming to a Grand Tour and finishing second is perfect."
