Jasper Philipsen is sweeping the sprints of the Tour de France where he has a different rival every day. Today’s was Mark Cavendish, who with a better location, would have suddenly broken the famous record, which is why the Belgian would have liked the win to go to Astana.
“The team has been key. I was lucky to have Jonas [Rickaert] and Mathieu [van der Poel] with me in the final kilometers. I didn’t have to make a great effort for my final sprint”, the Alpecin runner thanked his teammates, who have made up the best launch train in this edition.
Regarding his opponent, he only had words of admiration. “Mark was strong. Like everyone, I would have loved for him to win. I’m sure he’ll keep trying, he’s in good condition, ”he said.
Tomorrow it is not clear if he can add the fourth success, if not the case, he already clarifies his remaining objectives. “I will try to keep the green until Paris,” said someone who, with his unbeatable packaging, is the great favorite to win that distinction.
