It is his first victory since Tour de France, and the Dutch rider enjoyed it very much but it was not too easy, especially the final part. "It was a very difficult finish, actually. It was a very bumpy road. You couldn't stand on the pedals, so you had to sit a lot. But the legs felt good today," said Vingegaard.

He did not forget to thank his teammates who cleared his way to the victory. "We worked all day for it, so I'm happy I was able to win," said Vingegaard. He holds second position in GC, just behind the overall leader Jonathan Milan. "There are still a lot of stages to come. I don't even know if I'm first, I think Milan is still first. The form is good and I will keep trying,” concluded the Tour de France winner.
