But when the opportunity presented itself, he had the legs and heart to make it happen. In the post race interview, Jungels said he was countering the attacks on the Cote de la Roche aux Faucons to put his teammate Julien Alaphilippe in a good position. At the summit, the peloton just seemed to let the Luxembourg champion go. At that point, it fell to Alaphilippe to cover any counter attacks and to keep the peloton from chasing Jungels down. Quick-Step now has 27 wins this season, and are truly racing for each other, not just for themselves. With that attitude, they will continue to rack up victories all season long. Alaphilippe finished fourth on the day, with Michael Woods (EF Education First-Drapac) taking 2nd and Romain Bardet (Ag2r La Mondiale) claiming third on the day. Both coming in 37 seconds behind Jungels.
