Mikkel Bjerg: "I can't be disappointed"

"The team worked well through the stage because we need to get the peloton closer to the breakaway. One we had done it, I was hoping to stay with the GC group but I crashed in a turn at a very bad moment and I never managed to get back. But I can’t have much regret, I would have lost the jersey anyway because I was only 12’’ ahead of Jonas [Vingegaard]. Now, I still have the white jersey, but I can’t hope to keep it for long. Maybe tomorrow, but that’s it. The gaps are really small."
