Mollema wins stage 14

Bauke Mollema (Trek - Segafredo) took his second win at the Tour de France today after an attack out of the breakaway 40km from the line in Quillian. Patrick Konrad took second at 1'07 and Sergio Higuita (EF Education Nippo was third on a super-fast day in the saddle.

“It’s super nice. It was a super hard day. It took 90km until the breakaway went. As a team, we didn’t miss any breakaway. We got a nice group of strong guys at the front but we were not working together so well. I was feeling good. I thought ‘let’s go from far’. 41km solo, that was hard but I had the confidence to ride alone and keep going for a long time. I knew I had a very good chance to make it so I went full gas and did not lose too much. With more than 50’’ at the top, I was quite sure I’d win the stage.”

Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) still leads the Tour de France, and Frenchman Guillaume Martin shot up to second overall after sneaking into the breakaway.

"I wasn’t really concerned about Guillaume Martin. We now we can’t allow him too big a time gain because he is super strong, but four minutes is still a good gap for me on him. Now it’s other teams who need to chase him, and that is going to be very useful in the coming days. I think we are in a better position now than we were before the stage. I feel super good on the bike. I have enjoyed every moment of the race today. I’m happy that none of my teammates has really struggled today - just Vegard [Stake Laengen], who punctured at a bad time at the start. All my teammates are strong - especially Rafal [Majka], who was very impressive after the hard crash he suffered yesterday. I’ve checked the Andorra stage, although I don’t know by heart some of the roads. It’s going to be hard, for sure, but I have good feelings coming into tomorrow. I will ride defensively tomorrow because my first goal is to defend the yellow jersey… But, if an opportunity comes, I will try to grab it."
