Speaking seconds after the stage finish, the UAE Tour 2024 winner Lennert Van Eetvelt said: “Unbelievable! I can’t believe it. This morning everyone was telling me to give everything, try and go for GC. I was like let’s stay realistic, there are guys like Jay Vine. But actually what I’ve was what we’d planned. It’s just hard to believe that I pulled it off. I expected the race would be harder before the last two kilometres. But I just went for all or nothing. On Wednesday at Jebel Jais I was disappointed that I waited too much so today I went early enough. Winning GC, even if it’s I’m so happy. This winter I knew I had made big improvements. Now I hope this is the beginning of something big”.
