Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck): “It’s quite unbelievable really. The last few days I had super good legs, first day I had good legs, second day I had good legs and today I didn’t feel my legs at all. It’s always been good and to take the win here in a sprint against Demi [Vollering] it’s really a dream come true. I knew they were riding for GC and I’m just here for the stage, while I’m fresh I could play poker a bit. I knew Kasia [Niewiadoma] would attack and that Demi would have to follow so I just tried to keep a poker face and take it in the sprint. I think I went quite early in the end and I have never been here so I didn’t know where the finish line was. We had to wait for what felt like ages for the result. I’m so happy to take the win. I live for this. I worked up so much for the Olympic games and when you have good legs there you have good legs here.”
