Speaking seconds after the stage finish, the stage winner and Red Jersey Lorena Wiebes said: "The final kilometre made it difficult to win today. There was a crash close to me. I had to be careful. I opened my sprint quite early, but it went ok. It was hard to time the sprint because Liv AlUla Jayco came with a lot of speed from the right side. But my team did an amazing job and Lotte [Kopecky] gave me a strong lead out again today. We rode for the intermediate sprints yesterday because Lotte wanted to go for it to take time bonus before tomorrow's queen stage so it was better for me to go with her".
