"All our thoughts are for sure with Jasper. It’s pretty sad to see him go like this. There is a good chance he has broken something. We had a pretty nice goal in winning the green jersey with him again. It’s not a happy day today.
I think Kaden Groves will become the sprinter of the team. He has shown in previous years that he is able to win big races. It was difficult to refocus today, but in the coming days we will fight for victories with him.
Tomorrow’s stage looks quite hard. I hope to have good legs in order to go for the win and keep the Yellow Jersey. Will I try to fight for the green jersey? I don’t think so. It would be hard for me to win it, given that I have already missed some sprints finishes and intermediate sprints. I will rather focus on trying to win another stage."
