Van de Velde: "I can’t believe that we did it"

Julie Van de Velde (AG Insurance - Soudal Team): “With Justine’s victory I am so proud of her. I can’t believe that we did it. I tried to do my best to give everything I had to bring her as close as possible, first for the points and then in the end also for the win. I gave everything. When we got away and the gap was growing and growing I was thinking about if we would make it. Still, with six of us against the whole bunch, that’s not easy so I just started to believe in it when Justine attacked and went away on her own. She had still 3 minutes or 2 and a half, so then I was counting. In the end she did it!”
