For the first time since the 19th of February at the Volta ao Algarve, Stefan Kung returned to winning on the opening stage, individual time-trial at the
Tour de Suisse. A big relief for the Swiss time-trial specialist.
“I was talking about it with friends this morning. How long has it been since I finished outside the top 5 in a time trial? That was two years ago, but lately I suffered a lot of defeats," said the
Groupama - FDJ rider in his post-stage interview. "I am really very relieved that it has now worked. And that for my own people, in the presence of my wife, son and relatives.”
