“The objective is to spend as little as possible …”
The stage winner in Rouen said: “Visma tried I don't know what, but they gave everything, so we just followed our plan. At the start, two hours super fast, then wondered if we were going to participate in the stage or not, but we decided not to spend balls: Nils Politt, Marc Soler and the rest of the team. Then Visma arrived in the last two ribs by giving everything they could. Lose time, and Visma may have given me the yellow jersey today. Standing legs again for the second and third weeks, so what we did today was really good on our part “concludes Tadej Pogacar when this 6th stage arrived.
