“It’s my first race of 2023 where I wanted to try and do a good GC, and I haven’t gone to altitude yet, I will in a few days, so I can only get better. I can be very happy and proud with the way I am now and my teammates are doing very well too. So these are just good signs and we have to keep it up”, said the cyclist.
