Marcel Kittel (Quick-Step Floors) - stage 10 winner
It's number four – that's an incredible amount of Tour de France finishes. To just win it in one Tour, I can't believe it. I'm so happy. It's super nice. The team worked again so hard.
I think I had a pretty good spot because it was still relatively far with 500 metres to go at the last left corner. I saw that McLay started to sprint very early to come to the front, and that was my lead-out. From then on, I hit the front at 220 and I think it's no surprise that I feel really good at the moment in the sprint.

[On having the German record of Tour stage wins] Of course it means something for me. I don't know – I won now so many stages in the Tour. I never expected it when I was starting my career, I never really expected to be in the Tour. I was hoping maybe at one point to become a professional, but that I would be at this level with these wins, it's hard for me to imagine. I feel like I'm living in a small little bubble in a small little world that isn't really true.
Alexander Kristoff (Katusha-Alpecin) - fifth on stage 10
I was in really good position, we had Roelandts coming in front of us into the final straight and it was Marco [Haller] in front of me. When it came to the final straight, Roelandts took a bad corner unfortunately, and we had to brake quite a lot.
