“The guys are in really good shape and that’s positive”
“It was the first sprint finish of this Tour de France, we are of course disappointed, because our riders were hampered by the fall which occurred 2 kilometers from the finish, began Mark Renshaw. I think that the guys are in really good shape and that’s positive despite everything. We executed the plan very well today, all our riders were focused as soon as the final approached. Unfortunately, they were hampered by the crash in the final. and then it was over. But I’m really happy with the performance that Ballerini had today (8th). I think he has to make a top 10 and that’s really a good thing. Bad luck, but that’s how it is.”
