"A win ahead of Tadej Pogacar, Remco Evenepoel and Jonas Vingegaard is very difficult in a grouped finish, so I'm happy with fourth place. I really gave it my all and even if I'm satisfied with the result, for me, the objective is above all in the second and third weeks. The first few days of the Tour are always very stressful, and the heat of the last few days has been difficult to cope with. But I'm finding a good rhythm with my team-mates, and I'm getting more and more comfortable in the peloton. At this morning's briefing, we said that the top 5 was our target, so this fourth place is very satisfying. I'm looking forward to week two and stage ten, which will be my first objective."
