Giro d'Italia stage 7: Finish line quotes

http://ift.tt/1qixvhW

Andre Greipel (Lotto Soudal)

"It was a hard day, a really hard day. There was a strong break upfront but my team did an amazing job again. They killed themselves to bring the race back together. We hit the front early and but I was happy to find a gap, get through and win.”

"We knew it was going to be a tricky finish with the corners and the crosswinds. The guys did an amazing job in the last 6km to ride all the time at the front. I had two guys going a bit too early maybe, but they were over the moon with their performances. I was looking for a wheel to follow, I thought it was going to be too late but luckily I found a way through. I still had good power left so I was looking for a gap and Modolo stayed on his line so I found the gap and launched my sprint. Before this we were already happy with the Giro so far and now we have three of the seven stages so it has been amazing."

Tom Dumoulin (Giant Alpecin)

"Nippo did a strange move again to get Cunego in the break. I think next time I’ll just push him into the break because it’s really annoying.

"On the climb they went really fast and there were a lot of attacks and the bunch split but I had Tobias Ludvigsson with me and eventually a good break went, and everything came back and it was fairly controlled.

"I did Strade Bianche two times and I really liked it. I’m looking forward to tomorrow."
