6th place for Emilia Fahlin at Gent-Wevelgem

6th yesterday on Gent-Wevelgem, Emilia Fahlin looks back on her race and the group’s collective work.

โ€œIt was a difficult edition of Gent-Wevelgem this year!ย With strong winds and most of the course with a crosswind, it was a nervous and choppy race!ย But the team helped me a lot to stay calm and keep a good position when needed, and in the end, I thank them all for their trust and support today, it really cheered me up, because I had never had great success in this race before.ย Cecilie worked really hard at the end to close the breakaway gap and at the end, I had a good sprint, although I could have done better for sure.ย But I am proud that we are in the race, that we are fighting until the end and that the result is not so bad.ย “
