Win, 2019 Il Lombardia

Winning a Monument is, until now, the crowning achievement of my career. Taking a solo victory in Il Lombardia in 2019 was a great reward after many years of hard work and dedication.

Win stage 15, 2017 Tour de France

The Tour de France has always been the most important race for me as a professional cyclist and finally in 2017 I was able to win a stage. It was a big relief and a very proud moment for me!

Win, 2016 Clásica San Sebastián

San Sebastián 2016 was an incredibly emotional win! After missing out on the podium at the Tour It was amazing to comeback the very next week to win this great classic, a race that I love.

GC fight, 2016 Tour de France

What a bittersweet moment. So close, but yet so far! I’m motivated to fight with the best riders of the world once again this year at the Tour de France.
