The Tour du Jura is a race that requires a lot of explosiveness, as was the case yesterday with the Classic Grand Besançon Doubs. These are the kind of races that I like and that suit me. I did my utmost to be placed in this race in the final and on the approach to Mont Poupet. I knew the last climb of this race, and I knew it was very tough. When Clément Berthet attacked, I found myself in a small group behind him. I've got a good feeling again in these two Franc-Comtoise races, and I'm going to capitalise on that to keep moving forward in the next races I take part in.

It was a tough day, but a good one. Cristián was our leader, and I tried to support him as best I could in this Tour du Jura. The peloton explodes when Clément Berthet attacks. I can feel that my sensations have returned since the Tour of Catalonia. These are great races that match my qualities. It's interesting for me to test myself in this type of competition, which matches my profile.

Cristián stepped up the pressure during this Franc-Comtois diptych. He rode a solid race today, staying in a good position in the peloton on every difficulty of this demanding race. He had a good ascent of Mont Poupet and finished 4th, very close to third place. This augurs well for the next stage of his career. Louis Rouland also had a fine race today, confirming his fine performance in the Classic Grand Besançon Doubs. Louis accompanied his leader Cristián for a long time. He cracked halfway up Mont Poupet when Clément Berthet went on the offensive. But these two days in Franche-Comté have shown him to be a good climber-puncher in the making.Cristián Rodriguez 4th at the summit of Mont Poupet.
