,,It was between me and Christophe Laporte as the last man in the sprint ahead of Wout van Aert,” said Teunissen. ,,If you see how Christophe rode this spring, the choice is easy to follow.”
Yet it was Teunissen who helped Van Aert to victory in a seat on the final day in Paris last year in the Tour. Then there is also disappointment, isn’t there? ,,Yes of course. That’s an open door. I would rather have been there. But we have a very strong team. They are perhaps the most expensive spots in the pack. Now I’m going to focus on the Vuelta that starts in the Netherlands this year. Also beautiful.”
