Stefan Küng finished a strong seventh in Sunday’s Tour of
Flanders, a race dominated by Tadej Pogacar’s incredible late race move. The
Groupama – FDJ rider took a bold approach mid-race and reflected on his decisions
in a post-race interview with
Eurosport.
“Before the start, the plan was to ride defensively and
follow my intuition,” said the 31-year-old. “The race was special because of
the crashes. The pace was high on the Eikenberg and Wolvenberg, and my
teammates were lagging behind, so I thought it was a good moment to attack. I
joined from the back and we formed a good group.”
