“We still had a hell of a blow to morale with what happened with Louis Meintjes and the four riders of the team on the ground in this fall“, recognizes the manager of the Walloon training. And to underline the difficulty of this 2023 edition of the Grande Boucle: “It’s a difficult Tour, a Tour that goes fast, a Tour with a very high level. With stages that are difficult every day, where things go very fast and where there isn’t really any room for breakaways. It rolls all the time at all levels of the race. So yes, things don’t always go the way you want. When we were able to take the breakaway, we did it. When we were able to mingle in the sprints, we did. But we don’t have a victory yet.” He keeps on : “There are a few days left, a few possibilities for us. But having Costa in the breakaway of the day which raced a little ahead in a mountain stage, it was good for morale. And finally this Fighting Spirit Award. It ends our week well.“
