Felix Gall achieved a last-minute move into the top five of the General Classification at the Tour de France after finishing eighth. He previously won at Courchevel and fell behind Primož Roglič during a key stage at La Plagne. Despite initial struggles on Col de Pré, Gall persevered, crediting his team's efforts in pacing against Roglič. His focus was solely on the overall standings, acknowledging the difficulty of winning against competitiors like Pogačar and Vingegaard in the later stages.
"I'm super happy with today, I didn't feel super good at the start on the Col de Pré, but after a while I got the legs going again."
"The team did an incredible job on that final climb, we wanted to distance Roglič - that was my goal."
"The only thing I had in mind was to forget about the rest, and just think about GC, because it was always going to be hard with Vingegaard and Pogačar to win the stage."
