"It was a special day. I really had to keep my concentration because there were so many distractions," said Gilbert on the site of his team. Indeed, the "distractions" there was: a burning house on the edge of the course and the impressive fall of Kenneth Vanbilsen (Topsport Vlaanderen) who hit a spectator.
"In the prologue you need to eat and warm up at the right time," said he. "It was difficult for me to stay focused. But I think I went very quickly at the beginning and that I could hold to the finish. It was really tight. I know that every second counts in this race. I'm really happy to be in the lead, but it is not a great goal to keep the jersey. "0
