Felix Gall
"There's a great dynamic
"I'm very happy with my form. I knew I was in good shape after the high-altitude training camp in Sierra Nevada, but it's always good to confirm it in a race. Today's climb wasn't the most difficult of the week, so we weren't expecting any big gaps. We managed well, the team was very involved and there's a nice dynamic. I tried to attack with 1,500 m to go, but the slope wasn't steep enough. I went for the sprint and took third place. I'm looking forward to Sunday, as this climb suits me better."
The news
Paul Seixas in the top 10
After working up front to launch Felix Gall's attack, Paul moved back to the back of the pack and finished with the favourites at the summit of Jebel Jais. A fine performance which enabled him to take tenth place on the day's stage, a WorldTour first.

The number
Like Clément Berthet's place on the first stage of the Vuelta a Andalucia - Ruta del Sol. The finale of this steep stage saw a group of three riders break away at the front. Thanks to a great team effort, we were able to limit the gap to around thirty seconds, enabling Clément to take fifth place.
