He lost the majority of his deficit on the second stage after crashing in the gravel section, but having also lost time to the Mexican during the time trial and yesterday&#8217;s uphill finish, Jorgenson had few regrets.<\/p>\n<p id=\"62420a4c-067c-4585-acbc-c8ac8177e41e-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;No, I&#8217;m really happy with second place in the end.

He lost the majority of his deficit on the second stage after crashing in the gravel section, but having also lost time to the Mexican during the time trial and yesterday&#8217;s uphill finish, Jorgenson had few regrets.<\/p>\n<p id=\"62420a4c-067c-4585-acbc-c8ac8177e41e-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;No, I&#8217;m really happy with second place in the end.

We did a good job. Thankfully, it wasn&#8217;t up to us to bring the race back together, but it all came back together before the sprint, and I&#8217;m really happy with how we played it,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;All the guys were committed, and we took the initiative from the front, and in the end, I couldn&#8217;t really mess it up after a lead-out like that from Wout.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-TzCsRMt62iYKAh4ne5JNVV\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-TzCsRMt62iYKAh4ne5JNVV slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__header\">Get The Leadout Newsletter<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">The latest race content, interviews, features, reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!<\/p>\n<footer class=\"newsletter-form__footer \">By submitting your information you agree to the Terms &amp; Conditions and Privacy Policy and are aged 16 or over.<\/footer>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&#8220;I think in a race like this, the bonus seconds are really important, and this week I missed some opportunities, so it was nice on the last day to get it right and just have a nice final day.
