Before the start of Stage 4 of Paris-Nice, Jonas Vingegaard spoke to Cycling Pro Net, reflecting on his previous struggles in the race and looking ahead to the day’s challenges.
When asked about his memories from two years ago, Vingegaard admitted they were far from positive.
“Oh, bad memories. It wasn’t the best performance from me back then, so hopefully, the legs will feel better today. We’ll see,” he said.
Vingegaard recalled the climb where he had initially launched an attack but ultimately struggled to keep up.
“I do, I do. I remember I attacked first, and then it was a bit of standing still, and I couldn’t follow anymore.”
With his current form in mind, Vingegaard was asked whether he would use the stage as an opportunity to gain more time on his rivals.
“It depends a bit on how we feel and how everything is. It depends on how the breakaway is—I think there will be a lot of guys who want to go into the breakaway today. So yeah, everything depends on basically how everyone else is riding as well.”
Vingegaard’s dominance in the race so far has been evident, but he remains wary of the threats posed by his rivals.
“There’s a lot of guys who are really strong here. UAE has a very strong team. Also, Jo has a strong team with some strong contenders, and Trek as well. So yeah, we have to keep an eye on everyone, so to say.”
