Vacek: "It was a finale that could have suited me"

Mathias Vacek (Lidl-Trek): "It was quite an easy day so a lot of guys were still fresh in the finish. I tried my best in the sprint. I was a bit jumping around in the finale. It cost me energy but still, a 12th place is good. Definitely, I would have liked the whole day to be a bit harder. It was a finale that could have suited me with good legs but there are strong guys and it’s not easy. Tomorrow, I will help the guys for the climbs to see what we can do with our GC leaders."
