Vingegaard was all smiles when he was asked to evaluate the team's performance on Tuesday.
" We drove so fast the whole way. It was crazy cool, because it just worked for all of us, and there wasn't a finger to put on anything. Now we are in insanely good shape before the hard stages. It looks very promising for the coming days", said Vingegaard to TV 2 Sport.
The Dutch team set a time of 30:26.96, averaging 56.2 kmph across the 28.4 kilometre course from Circuit Nevers Magny-Cours to Nevers. Jayco-AlUla finished second 14 seconds after Visma, with Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe completing the top three a further ten seconds back.
Jorgenson took over the yellow jersey from Soudal Quick-Step’s Belgian sprinter, Tim Merlier, who won the opening two stages of the race.
“You know before the race that it’s already going to be the most stressful day, so it’s just good to have it done and feel like we did the plan as perfectly as we could,” said Jorgenson after today's stage.
