O’Connor: “Tomorrow’s finale will be a little bit more decisive”

Ben O’Connor (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale): “In the end, it was the perfect scenario. It was a really hard start, it took a long time for the break to go. A lot of guys in the top 10 were interested in the breakaway so I think we did a good job today to control the start. Other teams were trying to stay in position so we did the descents full gas, the pace was pretty hard onto the second climb and then it pretty much stopped. It was about staying in position. I think tomorrow, the finale will be a little more decisive. The final climb is a hard one so it will be interesting to see.”
