Reaction: “The fight for the breakaway was so long, and it was so hot, everybody was out of water. Once the group formed, I had the idea that everybody was playing – it turns out that they were all on the limit. We made the selection on [Col de Toses], we gave everything, but we needed to stay together. You saw some guys doing TV attacks – it was a bit of a disaster, we needed to stay together.” – George Bennett

Reaction: “For us, building for this Tour, it wasn’t a big objective for us, but with the practice and focus we put on it this week, we did a really good execution. I think we ended up doing a really good execution, and we can be happy. It’s all very close margins at the moment” – George Bennett
