"Today's stage was really tough. We spent the whole day climbing and descending technical routes, the pace was high and the breakaway was not easy to manage, but my team did an excellent job controlling the race from the beginning. I'm really happy to have been able to reward their hard work with a victory," Tulett continued, who scored his first pro win at the Coppi e Bartali three years ago.

"We have a great team supporting us behind the scenes and we always try to push ourselves further. I believe this is evident from the two victories we achieved just hours apart. Mattio? He's a young rider with a lot of talent, and this is quite obvious. He's very strong and it's really nice to see him so motivated here in a race in his home country. I'm happy to have also repaid his efforts today," said Tulett, who is about to fly to Spain to further maximize his condition.

We'll give our all until the finish line to try to take home the overall."
