"A great first experience".
"It was my first race and I'm happy with what I did. The way we race is different from the Juniors and that was something new for me. The team and I had a really good race. At the foot of the Route des Crêtes we were well placed, and as my sensations were good, I got away from the pack with a small group. We would have needed an extra 15-second lead to take the win, but I was still able to compete in the sprint and managed to pull away to finish 5th.
